New (wide) wall

Over this winter water penetrated into our garden wall and turned the earth fill into mud, eventually the pressure was to great and a couple of metres of stone wall burst open and the wall collapsed. Thankfully it didn't collapse into the road, but it did flatten a compost bin and some newly planted shrubs and rhubarb crowns. This week the mason has been rebuilding it. It was nearly complete when this picture was taken.

In the evening I went to the markers meeting at the local college, and helped with the installation of Ethernet, it was a few hours when I was busy and it helped to take my mind of things. When I am alone I dwell on things, which is depressing and not good. Apparently it's called anticipatory grief, and it's normal when you have a close relative with a terminal condition, and can be worse and more destructive than normal grief.

Anyhow my ferry and motel are now booked, and I'll be in Blighty for a few days next week and I'll find out how bad and how soon events are going to run...

Backblip. Thanks for all the support so far.
