ReplyDeleteWhat is it with builders and tarpaulins? You would think a little bit of wet weather would be a hint to cover up the holes but maybe it is a thought too far. We have been flooded by the rain when the builders forgot the tarpaulin. I do hope you are not soaked.
ReplyDeleteVery nice catching up with your blog today. You always provide some food for thought and some little delight to enjoy - like the toadstools. I remember hunting for ladyslippers and chanterelle mushrooms in the woods of Vancouver Island when I lived there.

Love the explanation of tarpaulin - nothing worse than a drip, a leak - having to use a tarpaulin!
