Painting pretty well done now, just a couple of little bits and some ceiling panels (between joists) which K will do. Just wait until I tell D I need some digging done tomorrow . . . The hard work in the garden has largely been done now and it is maintenance and - deep joy! - planting!<br /><br />DW - you must try and visit before we leave.<br /><br />Rowan - sorry to hear you broke your wrist, I shan't ask how! More water with it dear . . .<br /><br />SH - thanks for the award. Will try and sort that out soon.<br /><br />WoG - wickens - never heard that expression before but I will try and remember and use it.Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-14914883652154045382010-06-17T15:18:41.038-07:002010-06-17T15:18:41.038-07:00Wonderful pics and post as usual!

Since L is giving up 6 weeks of his cricket season to walk BB and cook and wash up I figure that suggestions about going away anywhere before the end of the season will meet with a frosty reception! So it's looking like late September....Rowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679130612798888266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-59277537497702348302010-06-17T12:19:32.150-07:002010-06-17T12:19:32.150-07:00The farmer calls that grass 'wickens' - oh...The farmer calls that grass 'wickens' - oh I wish I had a pound coin for every time I have said it has been eradicated from a patch of garden - only to find it arriving again the next week - the trouble in our garden is that the roots are under the path.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-70708467657853900992010-06-17T07:24:23.792-07:002010-06-17T07:24:23.792-07:00Reading these posts about exhaustive and extensive...Reading these posts about exhaustive and extensivere-decorating, with now four hours non-stop in the garden, I am concerned for your well-being. Won't your back put up a protest? "Cutting in" the edges of paint is such a fussy task.<br />The craftmanship which went into massive old buildings is awe-inspiring. No power tools, no shortcuts--just skilled labor. I know almost nothing about architectural styles and there is nothing so ancient and grand in this country. I enjoy the details which you collect and share from your travels.<br />I hope you can put away the painting tools and ladders and enjoy your garden during the remainder of the summer. Living in a house which may be subject to viewing on an hour's notice can be unsettling--that is when one's "house-keeping" is no tider than mine has ever been.Morning's Minionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01912356455981434029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-55978157441057829382010-06-17T06:28:43.082-07:002010-06-17T06:28:43.082-07:00It is good to hear that all your hard work on the ...It is good to hear that all your hard work on the house is almost at an end!<br /><br />Glastonbury looks so beautiful.
