My Odd Job day

Today was repair Sally‘s bed day 🙂 Necessitated by her 6ft+ lad falling on her foot board when playing hide and seek 🙂 and cruelly snapping it in two.

Good excuse for me to try out my new Erbauer ERB800RL all purpose saw – worked fine although I think it may be to flimsy for the more severe pruning jobs that friends ask me to do!

After which Sally gave me a first rate Indian Head massage and then I installed the new Google Latitude (alas not fully functional for us second rate citizens in the UK) programme whilst Sally had a paying client for a Swedish massage.

We headed off to Kings Lynn for a short walk and tea with Sally’s friend who did the Inca trail a couple of years ago.

Here’s the walk using the very neat Everytrail application on the iPhone:-

Sainsbury’s in the Botanic Gardens

I just pity the poor folks who bought the modernish (1983/84) houses in Bateman Mews, Cambridge. When built they were constructed on three floors so they had good views over the Botanic Gardens. However, due to the generosity of the Sainsbury’s they now overlook this:-

and even when its finished it doesn’t get better. Just look at the height of the new building (use the human figures as a guide).
