Morning all!
No news of Tristan - just that he is in a much lighter coma. Thank you all for your continued support and prayers.
Today I have to tackle my desk, but it's so cold in here I am not keen! I have piles of paper over piles of paper and I have lost things I need.
It's snowing again. Snow in Torbay! hasn't been seen in years we are too near the sea normally for snow to settle but yesterday tea time it started and its snowing heavily again now. I may not be able to get out of the house today, I am fairly unsteady on my feet as it is, without snow!
I hope you all have a good day flying
hugs

Looking good in Valliland
So - Hall, stairs and landing to do...
Ooh I just had a good idea and I have made a rope handle for the box I keep the light bulbs in. It lives in the landing cupboard on the top shelf and I have to stand on tiptoe to reach it - now I will be able to gently tug it off the shelf!
Changed outside light bulb but still no light
the other one (power saving) was too temperamental for the light fitting - the one out back works fine though
