Lodge decking coming along well, although Dennis has had some ribbing,
As he brought a “post-hole borer”, to dig out the holes for the posts, and southern wags here were asking him if he was going down to Australia.Well. Dennis dad was a master carpenter and he taught his son to build properly, and that’s what he has done.!
Really enjoying the lodge, and Tingdene seem( I am hesitant to say this) to be getting
Their act together. There were some errors with the lodge, and because of my persistant badgering and complaining,they are rectifying things. Possibly pleased to get “ that mad woman from the fens” out of their hair. However, only 2 out of 9 problems have been put right, so far. Shame really, Great product,but shabby after-sales. Hey ho.
Finlay is going to get a job !. Rivers-edge clearancefor the Environement Agency.
He is coming up with weirder and weirder stuff. It started off with the normal “ other dog”tennis balls and toys, then progressed to various beer bottles, both European and English( without contents !), vodka bottles( empty), Italian wine bottles ( empty, grhhhh), then we had a tortoise shaped kids banjo without strings, oddly shaped bits of wood, a plant with a big bulb on the end that he ate ,(and it gave him the rangoons), a kids large water rifle/pistol, and this morning a bog seat complete with lid covered in mud( that looked really choice!). He arrives with his treasure stinking of river mud, but then there is a nice place for swimming, so three times in there and he is clean again.
Off to Rebeccas on 16th, to see them all and deliver some furniture and then WE ARE OFF on the 20th july. !!!!!! 1 week up The Nene and then on to the canals. Not sure which way we are going, possibly north, but we are months behind, and think that we may miss a birthday party that we were looking forward to, but will wait and see.
