Morning.

Grey.

Dark.

Dreary.

Dank.

Wet.

Sunless.

November again.

Last night's sleep was improved no end by some random drip onto the front bedroom ceiling.

Never had that before, I suppose some slate or other has shifted and the rain must have been coming down at the correct angle to get in.

More expense.

WTF do I find a reliable roofer from?

You have my sympathy - we had to get someone out twice last autumn to sort out a leak over our bedroom ceiling. When we removed the built-in wardrobes in that corner there was a big black mark on the ceiling, so heaven knows how long it'd been happening.

We currently have one annoyingly dripping gutter next to the front room window and one overflowing round the back. Long ladder and patience needed I suspect.

Tooth update: drinking alcohol seems to set it off something chronic, so that's off the menu until the final work is done

That's harsh. You'd think alcohol would numb the pain.

Hope you get it fixed soon

Lunchtime.

The Morrisons pork pie (reduced) this lunch time wasn't an individual one, so I had to cut a nice slice out of it.

Along with Heinz baked beans on Morrisons seeded bread (reduced).

Followed by a prune yoghurt.

Yum.

And now for the ibuprofen chaser with two mugs (1.05 pints) of Glengettie tea.

It was dry on the walk back from town but the deluge has returned unbidden.

Ho hum.

Must get the bags of mortar* out of the car before it sets solid in the damp.

*To be clear, that's cement based mortar from B&Q rather than any other kind of mortar.

I tend to use Scribbler, they can deliver quite quickly although you are cutting it a bit fine
