The day has come

It opens.

It closes.

No having to do The Bump to close it.

No wondering why the house has suddenly gone cold.

No having to phone the school to say I can't pick the kids up because I'm trapped in the house.

Just a quiet satisfying dunt as it closes.



We've spent a fair bit of time in the porch looking at our new door this evening. We are quite sad but if you live on a windswept rock having a door that fits is an event. It's taken us 3 Winters to get round to ordering a new door. And it's taken a few months for the joiners to build it and get round to fitting it. Just some tidying up to do tomorrow and then we can open and close it as much as we like.
