Just Get On With It

 I'd got it into my head that the Trump inauguration was happening yesterday- and couldn't understand why the media wasn't making more of a hoo-ha. Seems like we actually have to wait until the 25th. 

My feeling is that if we're going to turn the world upside we'd best get on with it. The sooner we start the sooner we'll be finished.....

Gazing Into The Abyss

 Damian and Louis took up the kitchen floor and found a waste pipe from the kitchen sink had been discharging directly into the ground beneath the house and much of the substructure was sodden and rotten. One not insignificant, load-bearing, wooden beam- which Damian confusingly calls a "plate"- had been reduced to the consistency of potting compost. We knew there were problems with the kitchen; we didn't know they went so deep.

Here's Damian gazing into the abyss where the kitchen table used to sit.
