Thanks Esther. It is all going well now that my cough is much better. It is still there, but not too bad. I just wish Australia was a bit nearer, then there would be no choices to make.

My husband is pleased because his aeroplane parts have been delivered here. They are hundreds of pounds cheaper here because I have cut out the stupid UK agent.

Well, folks, after a disastrous day for wall-building yesterday, when poor Mark got drenched and had to give up, the day is dawning here - and the sky is clear! ;D

Maybe, just maybe he might get a full day on it. :)If so, the front will be complete and my husband is going to lay the paving for the seat area and fit the rose arch. Then we have a 'labourer' who will come and dig the border while Mark works on the back of the wall. At last things are coming together.

I was offered a stinger suit for swimming, but I am not that anxious. I think I would rather stand under the hose spray. I'm sure that could be arranged ;D ;D ;D

I put unwanted packets of seeds out too, and sold most of them - very cheaply.

It'll take me ages to get all mine done, Rosie. How about coming to help? ;D

I'm sure you'd all like to send Lou and her husband good wishes. Brian had a major operation on Monday, but he's fine, thank goodness. What a relief for them both!

She might be able to pop in here sometimes, but she's a bit tied up with visiting of course.
