    List is now up for today.

    Apologies for the lateness of this; felt really uncomfortable last night so went to be early but sleep was sporadic.  Bit of tummy trouble.  

    Decorator has papered in the DR though not completed yet and it looks so much better.  I just need someone to cancel their fitting so my flooring can go down earlier.

    Old car picked up from garage.  Water pump replacement has solved that problem; now to get it on the market!

    All the bags of leaf mold have been emptied into pots and buckets so they're off the base of the yard at last.  Now to decide what to plant in them.  I'm thinking garlic, the broadbeans and spinach.  Maybe more chives but I think I'll grow them in smaller pots in the greenhouse.  Leaves in the top half of the communal garden raked up, and the last of the apples picked up and binned.  The apple tree has now had a huge branch chopped off.  It's the wrong time of year but a gale would have pushed the tree over so we'd have lost it anyway.  This is the last ditch attempt to save it.  I don't hold out much hop.
    Loo scrubbed.
    Some paperwork dealt with.
    Better is good enough.
