Dovecote

An early trip to the supermarkets…slightly prolonged as I left my credit card behind in the first one and only discovered it was missing at the checkout in the second. Fortunately I had my backup card with me so I could pay…also lucky as it is a contactless one and I wasn't sure of the PIN! Then had to go back to the first shop to collect the forgotten card.

Home for coffee and then out for a walk. It was sunny when we set off but got darker and darker with some heavy showers about…lucky not to have got wet as there were some heavy showers about. On the way home I spotted this lovely dovecote - must have walked past here dozens of times and not taken much notice of it before.

Washing machine / dryer has been working overtime again to catch up on the backlog if laundry - hope I don't break it again.

Fixed a leak in the mains stopcock which has been bugging me for a while… It also won't shut off completely, so I think the internal washer is worn…a much bigger job to fix that involving shutting of the supply in the street. Job for another day I think..
