The weather outside is frightful

The weather has been frightful, which allows us to notice that the house does not leak.... Actually, its quite comfortable, though you can hear the rain on the roof in the loft, but it is isn't that loud.  Also I managed to do my Christmas shopping before lockdown was called.  And we got the tree in too. And the link to the cute cat video.   https://photos.app.goo.gl/ 5FPm2a7VLZR6edUj9

All those last bits start to come together

Living in a small 3 bedroom flat has been a little challenging. We have decided that the quality of prepared ready meals is a little variable. Fortunately our tabletop cooker is working, so we can have bacon sandwiches.  Also we found the kettle today. We can drink tea again.  We had the tree man around to clean up the unwanted trees. it has made the garden look a bit stark, but we plan to replant.  This link shows the   Tree being cut down .

The painters have been working inside, finishing off the bedrooms and staircase. While outside the paving and fences have been going up. It was a little surprise to me when we discovered the paving slabs were bright orange.....  I'm going to blame it on 2020 and my inability to go visit the shops.  I went online and purchased this tile. Which looks perfectly normal and inoffensive. However on the ground.   Wow, that's orange.  In defence of my choice, it only seems to get really orange when it is wet.  It will probably dull with age and dirt and actually is quite nice once you get used to it. The fences are possibly more orange.  But I think they might also dull with age. Inside there is painting and everything is white. And to add some excitement,  here is a cute cat wrestling video.
