One month in Dunbar

Just a month - and a few of the boxes are still unpacked, though the house is usable and some things are where they might be OK to stay. Therese has started her jobs and seems to be able to manage the startup pressure, but is getting very tired at night. I think that will improve once she gets more used to the new situation. When we moved in the weather was fine throughout the weekend, and we have since had amazingly good days, and one very rainy day, when water seeped under the garage door and ruined some books still in their boxes. It looks like today will be another day like that as the rain has been falling heavily for the past five hours. I have just seen it coming out of the side door of the garage, so must investigate when it stops.

All in all, though, this place is wonderful - a great contrast to Durham. No neighbours here, apart from the couple at the farm and another couple in the other farm cottage, all PLU thankfully. We did our best to relate to folk in Bearpark but it just didn't work.
