Not the brightest of starts; Ophelia was still trying to raise the roof but really it was just a fresh autumn day; drizzly too. We set about laying in supplies; Doulls for coal and the metropolis provided Alex with £10 of toys, bread and milk and cheese and bananas and internet access at the library. Oh and a £1.50 Brazil football jersey for Tom from the Blue Door. 

Home mid afternoon and a quiet potter about in the gloom before an even quieter evening in, listening to the wind rush by.
