Friday 2 July:

Decided not to walk (again!) this morning because I wanted to bath and, more crucially, wash my hair… I’d have happily bathed at 4.30am, but I’d have probably locked Moira out of the bathroom in the process. Hey ho.
Morning coffee with Moira inside (Tom was hacking down the fence and erected posts and the like)… and then I went to Hugo’s for fruit+veg.
I spent much of the morning reading my ‘Greek’ book (it’s some 550 pages long!)… and the same in the afternoon (but mixed with the tennis).
Moira had sorted out various things for lining up in front of the house (textile books, boots, crocs etc)… and so I updated the book database.
Feeling hugely frustrated about house-related stuff… totally unable to make any real progress until we hear back from George’s lenders… and from the Hewitt’s solicitors about the EWS1-related stuff.
Hannah sent through a copy of Ursa’s very impressive school report (wonderful comments from her teacher… who clearly KNOWS her).
Tom and his Dad rebuilt the fence next door… bought them some token wine+beer… looks great (George will be please – if he EVER moves here!).
Image: the selfie that I DIDN’T post from our Wild Beer meal yesterday (don’t we look happy? - believe me, this was the best 'smiley' one!).
