    I perked up a bit so I’m fine. Carpets being down a week Monday
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Always best to check for cables and pipes when screwing down floorboards hope you've got it sorted.

    Cleverly, Si had watched a YouTube video which advised him to screw in right next to the nails the builders had hammered in as a precaution. Turns out, the builders had nailed into the pipe too, it just hadn’t gone all the way through. So he hadn’t done anything wrong - didn’t stop him beating himself up.

    Suzi, I’m good
