Another glorious one

Fantastic weather again - which should really have been spent lounging and basking - but we had 'office' type stuff to do so most of the day was indoors.

Communication issues
One of the challenges of the day was sorting out our phone line which is giving us jip. This included me standing down at the bottom of the garden on the mobile phone relaying instructions to Jussi (plugging the phone in, unplugging it, have you got a dial tone etc) from a guy who, judging by his exotic accent, was working a night shift in Calcutta. Comic but not funny. Hopefully it'll be sorted soon. (oh - I was at the bottom of the garden to get a signal on the mobile).

Cricket thing
Is it possible that we have a cricket/grasshopper thing? There's something in the long grass making that kind of sound - but surely it's not that warm - and where has it come from? I wondered if it was a frog or a bird of some sort but it hardly seems to pause for breath, so I reckon some kind of insect beetle thing is more likely.

Blue can man
Hopefully we'll get our sea container tomorrow - but something in me water suggests it wont turn up yet. The foundations are ready.
