Jackie and I had booked the day off work so we could repair our fence. We worked solidly from about 9:30 am. It rained solidly from about 2:00 pm. We gave up at about 7:30 pm with the job still not finished. How we laughed together. We were soaking wet and utterly exhausted. We invented the new extreme sport of fence-building by torch light. We agreed that this was not a good way to spend a day off work. We will finish the fence at the weekend.
