Rusting....Decaying....

[poliphilo]

 There has been scaffolding in the courtyard of the Meeting House for as long as we've been going there- which is two years now. This week it was removed- and the coutyard looks bare without it. Also shabby. The scaffolding was so in-your-face that you hardly noticed how the metal window frames were rusting and garden furniture decaying. Mind you, the building as a whole- inside even more than out- needs refurbishing and redecorating. We have a lot of jobs in hand but, as always with Quakers, things are moving ever so slowly....
