Scaffolding arrived this morning. At 7:45. I had, still have, mixed feelings about it though. I’m pleased about finally making a start on the front wall. But my fear of heights has been getting the better of me.

I mean, even you can’t see the top in this picture, you can see that it’s pretty high.

And, while it made me shake a little, the view’s nice.

Strange. ‘Dead cat’ didn’t turn up anything on the Gateshead Council web page. But after digging around a while, I found it under spillages.

There’s a cat under the car. It’s a little dead.
