Renovations

Elk's Street is doing its bit to resuscitate the world economy. In addition to H-M's shopping, we are getting the entrance to the so-called 'inside garage' fixed.

This work was necessary because the support walls were slowly leaning more and more, and because water was getting into the cellar. Needless to say, this relatively small renovation is costing an arm and a leg.


Below some photos of progress so far.

Snow

The first snows arrived a little early this year and caught many people out, including the blue anemone below.
