Sunny Friday

The men turned up. One of them tells me he is an artist, writes films and something to do with computers. However, he was a brawny lad and very helpful, moving and sweeping up in between. Such nice lads.

The place now looks as though a bomb hit it - clothes, bedding, paints and rubbish all over the place. It will take me some time to turn it back into a flat which looks as though someone lives there.

Lunch at Lye Torng with Louise, a former barmaid now living in Hertfordshire with her husband and ten month old daughter. She did not realise the shock she would have with a new baby - not going out in the evenings - nursery costing more than the rent, etc. so is planning a move oop North to enlist family help with childcare and babysitting.

Poor Dorothy and Julian due to leave for the States today, and no sign of improvement in the volcano business. They have rebooked for Monday, but things still look rather gloomy. We shall see.
