Room with a view


The relevant government departments have trimmed a huge Saringa (spelling?) tree at the Adult Education Department. There were a lot of dead branches, giving the tree a greyish appearance, which have all been taken off. The whole of Market Street was closed from just below Seales’ Corner (close to us) to Thorpes. When I went out for bread, I decided to walk as it seemed quicker than taking the alternative route! Also the car had difficulty starting. We now have a much better sea view from the bathroom and boys’ window, which should allow us to actually see the RMS on its last stretch from Ascension. I feel bad for the fairy terns who nest in that tree though, as I’m sure a lot of them have been displaced. That was Reepicheep’s original home. (The photo is the view from our bathroom window).
