Roofless sounds like ruthless

canvas covering new timbersThe Wendy House kitchen is currently camping under canvas in the September rain,  ruthless.

Much to my surprise the self-mutilating builders turned-up.  I wasn’t expecting them because there have been more false starts than a particularly rusty old Fiat Panda on a frosty morning.

    Reminds me of the recently decoded inscription found on Stonehenge:

    “Gone to get roofing tiles. Back next Thursday…”

    Comments heard by builders…
    you want it finished by WHEN?
    it’s going to cost a little more!
    I did’nt quote for that!

    No it won’t leak! Have you a bucket?

    Scarlet, Bring your woollies, a water-proof, sunglasses (lets be optimistic), a lighter and a packed-lunch incase the BBQ goes-out.

    Paul, likening the experiences of the Wendy House to a national monument is quite the ticket, keep it up!

    Stephen, the builders are really funny chaps and helpful, they have already volunteered to fix lots of little unrelated things (e.g. guttering) because they have their ladders and power-tools, cement and stuff hot on-site. I suspect this generosity is why they are late, as much as the rainy weather. They have definitely been worth waiting for…
