Hey Doowop, what are you planning to build? Don't forget it gets cold, wet and dark in November.
There's a doowop programme on BBC radio this week, check it out, vintage American vocal harmony groups of the 50s and 60s. Details on request, it'll be good.
The house is all but built, McTag, but the planning officer and one of his lads apparently had to take a measurement of the height, following a complaint from a neighbour who said it had exceeded the height as stated on the plans. They turned up just before midday and used a laser tape, which showed it was four inches shorter than the plan. They then stayed around for a free bacon butty before going to tell the neighbour the bad news. We were all sweating for a while, mind.
Hopefully, all work from here on in will be indoors. We're running about four weeks over schedule as it is, due to the wet weather this year. Saying that, rain has stopped play today so the final bits on the outside will have to wait until tomorrow.
Which station is that prog on, McTag? Radio 2? Probably Mark Lamarr. Thanks, I'll go check it out.
