Shpikows

A semi-emergency blip - mostly to save you (briefly) from decorating ones.  The spiky shadows of the umbrella plant caught my eye on the many trips to and from the workshop.

Everything progresses slowly.  The plumber has been steadily tiling and I've been doing odd bits, particularly on the 'secret door'.

It's been very wet today but we've not really had the problems that the rest of the country has had.  That said, two of the group of nine guests booked in this weekend have been prevented from travelling (by train) because of the floods.
