We started on Anna's downstairs kitchen this morning. Pulled out cupboards and found the floor was incomplete. So we decided to pull up tiles and redo them. Caught up with Affie and Hannah and the kids which was nice. Went over to the house and checked out the waste disposal and found some other stuff. Not a bad start.

More driving in the beautiful Scottish countryside to our breakfast spot Tinto Hills Tearooms near Thankerton. Here I met a motorcyclist enjoying a ride and a Sunday morning coffee.

Originally 4 metres high what we saw was part of the foundations. The view of the English countryside was picturebook idyllic.
