our bathroom is not exactly gone but is being transformed now that the boiler and the pipes and casing have all vanished (or been redirected to the cylinder cupboard, anyway), the whole room is being tiled.
I have been on the lawn filling in all the cracks that have been appearing, most of them big enough and deep enough to get all my fingers down. Filled them with topsoil and grass seed. There might be some rain or even thunder this afternoon , and a good drenching would do the grass no harm. I shall have to abort my plans to visit the tall ships on the Thames, though.
