Thanks Michel

I ache all over. The day was spent in the garden helping Michel finish the dog kennel and side gates. He's an excellent worker and it all looks good. Even in the short time he's been here it's amazing how much building knowledge that you pick up. Not that I'm likely to use much of it.

The second half of this month was much warmer (15.8 C avg) than the first half (12.5 C avg) and with only 17 days of sunshine mostly in the second half it was a satisfactory rather than an exceptional month. Having said that, I turned off the heating today because it looks like summer has now arrived.
