Jump started the Subaru – its battery was flat when I tried to move the book-laden car last night. Moved the Subaru next to the cottage back door while I unloaded the books.

Gathered the books from upstairs in the cottage and several piles around the downstairs and shelved them in the living room. Marcus helped bring several of the heaviest containers of boks from the car into the living room. Marcus brought his week-old lamb and farm dog Duke over with him from the homestead. So far the animals are all getting on well together, no fighting or chasing, touch wood.

Took Bangle for a very short walk today comprising picking up a sandwich and coffee for lunch and then haing lunch on a table under a tree in Frimley Gardens.

Frost fans have been going for several days but they don’t keep me awake, it’s an expected background noise in late winter and early spring.
