Well

the builder arrives tomorrow am to 'fix' the damp patch on the back wall; the kitchen tiles; the shower rail runner and all the other things which are broken. To allow him to do this I have had to move and pack things away. I rather suspect that this packing and seeing of empty walls has opened my eyes... time to move on I fear. Somewhere nicer - less ramshackled. Somewhere which is not a ground floor flat...
