Lying down on the job

Today it was my turn to redress the "unequal distribution of labour".  The damp problem has - we hope and believe - been sorted by a relatively simple job of clearing back the earth, which was impinging above a possibly not very effective damp proof course, from outside and creating a ditch.  W then tidied up the wall and glued the skirting back on.  Then it was my turn to touch up the paint - except that the paintwork has faded so much since it was applied in November 2016 that the touching up stuck out like a sore thumb, and I had to paint the whole wall.  I can't kneel to do the low work - the only way is to sit or lie down.

So no flute playing or sewing for me today.
