Jogged my miles, coffee, fruit, shower, Morning Prayer, now I’m home for a bit. Later, I’ll go to our Chapter Meeting, then back home, then back to church for a meeting of the Parish-wide Pastoral Care committee. [A lot of time for a theoretical half day, which was my rationale when I gave the title for the post.]
Of the houses we saw yesterday, one displeased us from the start. One is more than we can really justify, both in cost and scale, though it would be splendid (it has a conservatory, and Margaret was glowing about the conservatory; of course, yesterday was the first sunny day we’ve had in yonks). The third was not quite ideal, b ut not implausible. The Perfect House (expensive, but perfection is expensive) is not out of play yet. And I have my eye on another house, more modest but with the savings we could perhaps add a conservatory or an outbuilding. Such is house-hunting.
