Rabbits

It's 1st December- time to start swimming. Tony, cocktail maker extraordinaire, has offered to help me pick up a bench I bought a while ago. Viv has restored it and I chat to her and meet her dog. She's a rescuer of old things and interested in stories,especially about houses. Her dog is interested in new smells.
We drop the bench off and I show Tony round. Later I go back and do some digging- more concrete and bricks come to light. I move some dirt and tramp it down. The ground level is gradually evening up but it's taking a lot of dirt and a lot of doing, by myself. I cool off at the beach where the wind is so strong I can hardly hold onto my boogie board. On the way home I drop in to see Nicki and we visit her building site. Her two houses are coming along at about the same pace as mine.
