We've installed a cat-flap for Tom Kitten!
Jackie bought the item from Notcutts Garden Centre in Horningsea. A swift burst of newly-rejuvenated generator coupled to the trusty Angle Grinder widened the hole previously occupied by a grille vent. I then borrowed James Duck's drill (mine has developed a wobbly chuck...),Tom got the hang of it and is now making his own way in and out of Pippin.
Result!
I have also given the wheelbarrow which lives in the woodpile a coat of Dulux Anonymous Beige.
This is an undercoat for the various greens, browns, sludge colours etc, that I have bought cheap from the Dulux shop in Milton ( a great place for cheap paint that has been mixed in error...). It's looking good......
The Ducks, however, have been having a bit of a time of it.
They have to be on the way to March for the much blogged about Thorough Sorting at Fox Narrowboats. Sadly, the Duck motor was refusing to start.
A long story cut short: we recommended they join RCR as they have been brilliant with us. RCR don't send out one of their own blokes (who are brilliant), but a 'local contractor'.
This muppet has mucked them about so severely that I am embarrassed to have recommended RCR in the first place.
A sorry state of affairs.
