Up the hill the wood cleansing for this year is completed. The route for the fencing is cleared. The Sweep and its meadows are released, and so are the terraces of the orto alongside the Sooty.
The Sooty orto is to be fenced separately from the home park fencing immediately, so that it can be planted up for veg. and salads. Leo will plough it next week; the scattering takes place as soon as it is fenced otherwise porcupines will descend from above the fountain and eat all the shoots and leave.
The windows and shutters have been fitted at the house and now the carpenter has to remove all the handles, and all the shutters as he has been impertinent enough to stamp them all with his name as if the house is his advertizing hoarding. I have declined to have any further part in choosing with this particular tradesman as he is a local, puffed up, masculinist creep of a kind all too familiar. The architect has goldenly-smiled and agreed to deal with him on Monday.
