Another garden blip today, couldn't resist this gorgeous woodpecker.  Spent ages watching him as well as a squirrel.  

Finally have got somewhere with getting a new stove!  Its only taken some six weeks!  You'd think people would want the business wouldn't you.  Wasted three weeks waiting for the guy who fitted the original one, and have been waiting for another three weeks for the second company, Kengas in Carlisle who are supposed to be the best in the area to send me a quote, it was promised for last Tuesday by email, but of course they lost my email address.  Then they said they'd post it last Wednesday but of course its never arrived.  A very nice guy from the third company came to visit yesterday afternoon and emailed the quote shortly after. So today I've been to a shop and ordered it, woo hoo!!
