17.07.2022 The visitors have arrived!

 ~~

 Sunday 17th 53F, overcast. A cloudy day is promised. The heatwave is heading north towards Denmark.  Up at 6am. 

 7.00 Tidying until it was time to:
 8.00 Shopping instead of a walk.
 9.00 In the observatory but it is too cloudy. 

 11.25 68F. Still tidying, cleaning, dusting, vacuuming and cleaning windows.

 12.00 Ant killing powder from the builder's merchants doesn't work. They are thriving on it under the brick floor in the greenhouse! 

 12.30 I have just finished cleaning the curved, Plexiglas [?] shoulders of the greenhouse. All 22' of it. They had unsightly algae all over them. I used a plush window mop with water and a dash of washing up liquid first. Just too loosen up the dirt and algae. Followed by a washing up brush to gently scrub away the algae. A final squeegee removed the water and left the surface clean. There seemed to be no obvious damage from using the brush.

 My family visitors have arrived. There was well over decade of catching up to do. The bonus was having dinner cooked for me and the washing up done. With free red wine and some cooking tips thrown in. 😊
