Crane

When we arrived at work this morning this crane was parked right in the middle of the driveway - it had only just arrived so was able to move out of the way to let everyone through as they arrived for work. But isn't it cool?

Its big and shiny and silver and new and all it did was lift a couple of communication boxes onto the roof of the building. Admittedly it did have to swing them over quite a large deck area so I guess that's why they had to use such a large beastie but it definitely looked overkill when it was swinging these small boxes over.

I almost rang A-M. to see if she wanted to bring the nephews over but I wasn't sure how long it was going to be here and it would have been very disappointing for them to get here and find it gone.

The photos also show what an absolutely perfect day its been here. Almost too hot in the tearoom with its two walls of glass. (This comment is really for the benefit of the little blister who leaves on Saturday for a week in Greece - jealous? Me? You betcha!) The weather this month has just been superb and as far as I know its going to continue for a while. Yay. As the sun's been getting lower in the sky I spend the morning sitting at my desk roasting because it seems like sacrilege to put the curtain down. It also means I'm still wearing summer clothes. Long may it continue.
