It was raining this morning, but we wanted to get out to escape the racket that the builders were making. The scaffolding people are coming to remove it all tomorrow, so if the roof isn\u2019t finished by close of play today there\u2019ll be problems.

Tomorrow\u2019s going to be even noisier than today, as the scaffolding people will be aiming to remove all the metalwork as fast as possible. We need to get out early again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
