By the time I left for work this morning, the new bird table had been totally cleared of food – let me guess? Starlings? 100%. On a positive note there will never been uneaten bird seed stuck to the table, whilst Starlings are around! Another beautiful day with sunshine and no wind, but a weird short spell of snow fell, as I was typing up an assessment on the computer at work!

After work I speed walked to Harper Macleod (they close at 5pm) to finally be told I could pick up the Title Deeds and fascinating papers and irreplaceable history of my house. When I was shown these by the previous owners, there was a big brief case full of lots of paperwork. I was in total shock when the receptionist passed me a thin A4 envelope of papers – I questioned this and she said that's all there was. When I got home I popped in to have a chat with Margaret, who said there were not only papers missing, but where was the fire proof brief case she had given to her solicitor? She will ring them tomorrow and I have emailed my solicitor.

Cancelled my carpet fitting on Friday and my builder will hopefully aim to come out on Saturday to assess the mouldy floor. I felt exhausted this evening and did very little.
