Another good night.  Maintaining her bedroom at a constant temperature seems to be the answer... just cool enough that the blankets keep her body temperature at the right level so that she stays asleep.  It seems to be working. 

Midday

I've just had tree fallers working .....

 This tree is in front of the 'bungalow' .... after the bungalow has been moved, the driveway will be constructed to the left of the trunk .... so the tree needed a cosmetic trimming to be ready for this.














 This job is to 'make safe' a dead branch on the large tree next to the letterbox.  The branch was rotten and when it fell it would be likely to break the powerline.













These guys are so fit ....











 ..... and this tree is the one that over-hung the house at the corner .... the trunk was rotten through and it is just a matter of time till it fell on the house.


I love watching how they work!


A few weeks ago, we wouldn't have been able to get this work done .... but because the builders wouldn't come and do the repairs needed from the tree falling on 22nd September, I was able to have a cash settlement from the insurance .... this will be more than enough to pay for the repairs plus getting a few other jobs done as well.
