Our house painting is finished and it all looks beautiful. The scaffolding has been taken away. Fortunately our neighbours did not need, like Charles Saatchi (Nigella's husband)to send in their own workman to take it down. We shall miss our friendly builder who has been here for some weeks and is almost like one of the family.
On the subject of scaffolding I have been told that the scaffolding is customarily left in place until it is needed for another job. It saves on transport and storage I suppose. There are tricks in every trade.

Ramblings of a nonagenerian (vintage 1923). Grew up in Lambeth in the 20s and 30s. Lived and worked in London during World War II. I have been attempting to do the Telegraph Cryptic Crossword since 1939! (My daughter says I *have* to write this, but I am troubled as it sounds so conceited.) I bought my first computer aged 85 and am continually frustrated by the vagaries of the technological age.
