Back to Red Cross

Got up and ready as Kirsty was going to call for a chat.

Just managed to chat for 45 minutes before getting off to Red Cross.

We had a really busy morning and it was 11.40 when I said to Les that it was time for coffee - neither of us realised how fast the morning went over.

I stayed late at the shop looking for clothes as the summer stock is in. I found a nice top in red and white for me and five polo shirts for Jon. They are French Connection, Country Road and three other Australian brands and all still with the labels on and the lot cost me about £25.

Got home late, 2.10 and had a quick sandwich. There was a message on the phone to say the surveyor had found a few problems and the builder would be coming on Sunday at 11.00 to check them out. No 'Is it OK', just he is coming. I phoned the agent and changed it to 10.30 as Jon will be even more angry if he misses out on his coffee.

I took Tot out and she was so slow and enjoyed eating a lot of grass on the way.

When I got home a different agent called to confirm the time for the viewing tomorrow and also said the builder was coming on Sunday and would take the skirting board off in the bathroom as the surveyor had a damp reading. I told her there was no skirting board as the bathroom was tiled. So not sure what is happening and we really don't want the builder here doing work on a Sunday and he only has half an hour. Jon has sent an email to the main agent asking for clarification.

I thought I had better get a move on as it was nearly five o'clock and I needed to do some cleaning to get the house ready for a viewing.

I managed to get everything sorted by the time Jon and Heather came home and so we went down to the beach to have a look at all the oil and containers that have been washed up. Fortunately, we didn't see much as the clean up people seem to have done a good job today and as far as I know no more containers have fallen off. Hopefully, now that the weather is calmer they can get the oil off, too.

We came back and went to order the fish and chips and went for a beer while they were cooking it. Got back and really enjoyed it.

I got stuck in to my ironing after dinner and only have about 9 pairs of trousers left to do!!!

WEATHER
Cloudy with some heavy showers 18 degrees
