Cue evil laughter

Nya ha ha ha ha hahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Not one but **two** more conifers are dead. One put up a mighty struggle, aided and abetted by the flowering cherry (its days are seriously numbered too), so I summoned The Builder and he dealt it its death blow. The other one gave in much more meekly. They are both now stacked between the hut and the shed along with the rest of the bodies. I have cleaned out the fish pond some more, done some weeding and tidying and planted a baby curry bush and some foxgloves.

In the meantime, The Builder has almost finished laying the new kitchen floor. Looks fantastic! The lounge room has come up well, too, in its cheerful, primrose colour.

Oh no. The Builder has just rung to say that he's been told he won't be needed anymore where he's been working for the last few weeks. Bugger. That was looking set to be quite a long term job as well. Oh well. He'll just have to finish off the kitchen floor and then he can get stuck into the larder!!!!

Thassorl for now.
