Flying Visit

In to Staithes today on a whistle stop in & out tour to see how the builders are destroying my house, not to mention the peace and quiet of Church Street...... Amusingly as I type this the builders start the cement mixer and a drill in a duet of bedlam in A major.

My builder is a lovely fella, delivering line after line of bad news with an encouraging grin. It appears that apart from the holes in the wall, the cracked wood and door frames, and leaking walls that appear to have forgotten they are walls, things aren't too bad....

After 2 hours of realising I need to work much harder, Poppy & I climbed up to the Cleveland Way and we were met by sheer beauty. Solace to soothe the soul.

Now I sit and wait for BT. I have 2 hours. My guess is they will be a no show.
