Woke around 0730. Got up and porridged, then awaited the scaffolders. Three of them turned up at 0930 in the drizzle, and another team then turned up to build the rig up to roof level. Took them until lunchtime. Gave them tea and amaretti biscuits! Lynne departed for Penzance, so the flat above will be empty for a couple of days before Frazer shows up...hope the scaff rig doesn't encourage intruders!!! I put an egg and halloumi salad together for lunch. We ventured out to do a little shop at Waitrose...nice, warm afternoon in the sunshine. Aki put together a three course meal for dinner...a fig and mozzarella starter, followed by sea bass and vegetables, and her homemade tiramisu for afters. Watched Celebrity Traitors...
