St Ybard 2008 Friday

During the night we had a heavy thunderstorm with lightning, crashing and banging, the electricity tripped, hailstones bombarding the roof and windows; you couldn’t even hear Denbo snoring. Today has been overcast and we decided not to drive a long way to watch the tour. We have spent the day on domestic duties, reading, snoozing and idly chatting. The bikes stayed in the barn. Absolutely lovely and my legs don’t hurt at all.

Martin and Trevor have worked hard to complete installation of the new outside door to the bathroom, which should have earned them a mega-housepoints bonus. Trevor is just filling the voids around the new door frame with an expanding mousse – I believe the 500mls can expand to completely fill the whole bathroom so we may never see him again. Norman, Den, Martin and Paul visited Super-U on a shopping expedition this afternoon and went up to The Bowler for a beer. In their absence Trevor had a tidy up and found some rotten apples and mouldy mushrooms. Paul and Denbo are currently bickering over cooking them in a 16 egg omelette for supper I think. Oh Dear, it’s all go isn’t it?
