Anyone aware of a good ark building service? I am working in a library many miles from home for a few days and the rain just keeps pouring down.
I hope you have easy access to animal pairs.
A cat tried to accompany me into the library after lunch, so maybe word is getting around.

Joy!
I'm hoping (but not hopeful) for September. I'd very much like to take a few days off if the weather improves.

By pure chance, we actually benefitted from the "sunniest July on record in Northern Ireland". I'm fairly glad we didn't pick another year to go there, if that was it.

What year was that?
