(We only normally get away without the Kids on special ocassions like our anniversary. So we used the “kids free time” this year getting rid of some asbestos)<\/em><\/p>\n

We arrive, unload and decide we’ll get straight to work. This is using the royal we, as on our last visit we discovered blue asbestos inside the cottage. A little surprise since our, rather expensive, full structural survey didn’t mention it, though in fairness they didn’t say we hadn’t got any, just as they didn’t say whether we did or didn’t have anything, just that we could have\u00a0 ( grrr!).<\/p>\n

\u00a0This is a job for the Stuff Doer ( I’m sure he’ll tell you all about it). Now, as the offending part of the cottage was sealed off, I had no access to the kettle, so did what any other sensible person would do and went shopping!<\/p>\n

An hour or so later the potentially dangerous stuff was over and all I was required to do was take funny photos and throw a couple of buckets of cold water over Stuff Doer’s head (I honestly took no sadistic pleasure in that at all).<\/p>\n

The upshot of this removal is that we have, yet another, mystery. The asbestos was covering evidence of some substantial shelves, which have been removed. They have been plastered up to and appear to have been specifically designed for something as they are asymmetrical and of differing sizes. Monday night was spent drinking wine\/beer staring at a wall and wondering. We didn’t come up with anything in particular, so answers on a postcard please! (or leave a comment)<\/p>\n

note to stuff doer: Where’s the photos ……\u00a0 “stuff doer ” will this do”<\/em><\/p>\n
