Today I’m trying(!) to be helpful – my wife is replacing the foam and re-upholstering the seats from a Volkswagen camper van, so (after taking the dog for a quick walk) I drive over to her workshop in Hevingham, and set about removing the old material and foam. I then get roped into helping to glue the new foam into place and fit the covers that my wife has made. We make good progress and have finished two of the three seats by the time I have to leave (to take the dog out again).
The dog is pleased to see me (she’s hardly ever left alone for more than a couple of hours). After another quick walk, I get some logs in from the back garden and light the fire so that our cottage is warm and welcoming when my wife gets home.
