Day 37

ooh, loads of real stuff happening today. double glazing in today - lots of topless men running around talking like market traders - Tracy took a trip to the shops to escape - mind you, we put penny down for a nap and the electrrician unleased the loudest drill to chase out the new sockets - it was louder than the tool to bring the whole wall down some weeks ago....eek!
