The weather turned, becoming wet and windy. We had put a cloche thing over one of the beds but omitted to tie it down. I was just getting ready to go down there when the doorbell rang. It was the fire service come to install two new smoke alarms free of charge in the house, one downstairs and one upstairs. Then, I had some fire safety advice - shut the doors at night, get rid of the polystyrene ceiling tiles, what do to if you smell gas…. He said that we should get smoke alarms for each bedroom, plus carbon monoxide detectors for rooms with the gas fires in. Anyway, by the time he had left, there was not enough time to go to the plot as I had to collect my son from school.
Hope the cloche is still there. Probably go down over the weekend.
