25th Jan 2011

More rain but not that heavy and some sun in between. It did make the sky look interesting. Rosie likes sitting under the terrace watching the rain come down.

Torin rang. He has now arrived in Dehli and of course the work is not ready for him. He told me that would be the case before he left Singapore and he was right. He seems to have problems in India with the speed of their doing things or rather not doing things. He said tomorrow is a bank holiday over there, so nothing will be done then. I can’t say he was too happy. The more delays he has obviously the more delay in getting home and he misses the twins.

I have been cleaning out all the kitchen cupboards and several things needed replacing so I had a trip to Mr Pound. I wonder how it is you go into Mr Pound for three items and come out with a dozen! I also stopped at the yapi market on the way back to buy some clear varnish and paint brushes, for things to be done when the weather improves a little.

I spoke to Mal in the evening and his work is on target for finishing earlier than he planned and so has booked another ticket back a week earlier. Of course he gets no refund from Pegasus for his already booked ticket and also on this one he was charged £13 service charge..for what service? Never mind, when the new airline takes to the skies………………
