Now, as I see it......

The Boys from the Black Stuff

This morning we were descended upon by a swarm of orange suited men wielding wheelbarrows and rakes.  It's time to put the Tarmac down on the roads and pavements so we were warned a week or so ago that we can't leave our cars on the street and that access may be difficult this week (and that they take no responsibility for wet Tarmac stains on our cars if we ignore them).  It's come at a bad time for our garden man as he wanted to deliver some things to site but he managed it first thing and then parked in a nearby road.  Tomorrow his skip is being replaced so we are hoping it's done before the men start working again.  The skip lorry normally turns up about 7.00am so it should be OK.

It's good news though, as the final road surface must be one of the last jobs to do so hopefully the builders will be off site soon.  They've missed their latest deadline of the end of January but it's starting to look as though they might be all done by the end of this month.
