Most of the week we have had wonderful weather. It has been sunny and dry. Perfect weather for roofing. Typically the guys coming to finish the chimneys (put lead flashing on them and plaster the outside) come on the worst day of the week - gale force, freezing easterly winds and horrid cold rain. Who would believe that it is April! To give them credit they did do some work and will be back tomorrow. Let's hope the weather improves for them.
Daithi spent most of the morning at the Cork Building Providers getting a list of price for 'stuff'. The prices there have gone down enormously a sure sign that the building industry is in decline. Good for us though. Anything to save us some money is good! He was very good not to be drawn to Kinsale to visit his friend. He would have been there chatting and having coffee all afternoon had he done. Perhaps my nagging is getting somewhere?
Only one horse up at the house now. Dusty, a rescue horse, was taken to another field with more grass and more shelter. We are exposed up on the hill here and the poor things needs some feeding up to get strong enough for this sort of weather. Bob, being a shire horse, doesn't really mind what the conditions are I'd say.
