durty alley

durty alley


despite the recent beautification of durty alley, it will always be known to us as durty alley.

sadly the 'before' photographs are hiding in our archives somewhere.

here is durty alley midway, after tawfiq had cleared out all the nasty.

played another 2.5hrs squash with tawfiq and maria.

tawfiq has gone from never having played squash before to being a formidable player in... just two games.

tawfiq almost went from being alive to not alive, after he managed to smash a squash ball right into my right testicle.

i was thinking about taking up astronomy.

...almost ignoring the reversing cement truck.


RTB via HSS where we picked up a 'whacker'



jim of the mix it kind, gave us a good deal on 2.5 meters of concrete with a box of 'milk tray' thrown in (the deal, not the concrete)

if we can get a concrete mixer down the side of the bunker, we can pretty much get anything down there... 


even managed to get past half of mrs.perou's greenery deposit.


writing of which, overnight we have started getting charming birds flying into the yard.

i had a great tit on my windowsill today...
