Did some more painting prep on Monday. The rotten bit on one of the barge boards was worse than I thought so decided to cover with hardwood ply. Then started looking at our bedroom window and its very rotten so called out Kelly's Sash Windows who did the front room. Had a call from Madeline and later she was out blowing raspberries in the park. The Tory party had a vote of no confidence in Boris as 54 letters had been received asking for one. That's 15% of the parliamentary party. He won but 148 voted against which is pretty damning. Put the plywood up on Tuesday and primed it. M had to do a presentation for her PhD on Wednesday morning so took her up the uni. Then carried on with the painting prep. On Thursday put on the first coat of undercoat. Went out for a ride with Kelvin in the evening. Had a pint at the flower pot, fish and chips in Henley and met Stuart at the Loddon Brewery. Unfortunately it had closed at five so went to the Fox and Hounds. Discovered I had a puncture as we left so walked back. Did a Mansfield Rd walk with Roger and Paul on Friday. Bus to Mongewell, lunch at the Cherry Tree a pint at the Unicorn waiting for the bus back and then one in the Castle Tap. Tom came round later and set up his frisbee golf basket in the garden. It should have another set of chains. He's taking part in a tournament at Dinton Pastures.Madeline called on Saturday morning. She is now crawling, very mobile but only using one knee at the moment. A good start to the day. Emptied the guest room in readiness for redecorating.
Had tapas and pizza in the evening as Tom brought a bottle of fino back from Madrid. He really caught the sun playing frisbee. Put another coat of undercoat on on Sunday. Tom finished his tournament and left about 4. Sent an email advertising our gigs.
