Hernia

Quiet day, waiting at home whilst G has hernia operated on. A remarkable number of DIY items have been completed in the last few days, as he knew he wouldn't be able to do them during the next few weeks.

The emergency sewage men and a large lorry have arrived across the road. And not for the first time. Take a large, (one bathroom, no washing machine) 18th century farmhouse that hasn't had anything done to it for fifty years, add six bathrooms (yes, six) and a utility room and oops, the sewers can't cope.....

And in extras, a really grumpy viola.
