Sorry Tessa

First of all apologies to Tessa for reporting that she had bought the wrong paint. 'What was all that rubbish you were writing?' chastised Mrs Bossy Boots Beavan, 'Tessa got the correct paint.'
'Well, that's not what Tessa told me as she arrived back from Forfar' I replied meekly. Did Tessa nip back to Forfar with the 'wrong' paint, exchange it, and swiftly return with the 'correct' paint without letting on to the workers I wonder? The one and only Ms Tessa Mendez can clear up this paint mystery with a posted comment. Watch this space if you can be bothered.
I'm pleased to report that the shop is nearly finished being painted. Janet McF, Linda H, Sue and yours truely second coated most of the shelving this morning and the place is looking much tarted up. Next step is to tidy up the splash zone and clean the carpet. I think Thursday is the next scheduled workday.
Janet P provided a prototype sandwich filling for us to try at lunch and it passed the test. It's to be billed as the light lunch option at Cafe Dun and features pesto sauce tomatoes and other healthy stuff. Well done and thanks Janet.
It was a beautiful day at the House and just about mild. In the shop it was the usual minus ten but we were warmed by the company and hard work.
