Blogger is becoming impossible. I don't often write here but I've started a post twice and, after a couple of lines, everything I've written has vanished. This will be my final attempt.
I've continued to blog on the newer site, of course, but i know some people only have this one marked. So, a quick update, from the middle of lockdown 2.
Rose and family moved out during the summer from the annexe. She had been my very welcome guest for nearly six years and her Boy lived there too, once he'd finished university. A year or so ago, he moved his girlfriend in and then Rose moved her new partner in. Everyone got on well but the whole thing wasn't really sustainable, especially once lockdown came along and, in the end, Boy and Girl moved to Ipswich and Rose and Man moved nearer to Norwich, but still on the edge of a village next to a field.
We were perturbed about the prospect of the annexe being empty - there was no question of renting it out. The council had allowed me to have a friend living there as a guest, but it's a family annexe, not a letting property and that's fine by us. It adjoins our house and you have to be very confident of a relationship to have anyone else here. I didn't have anyone else who I thought I'd welcome except for a short time. But it suddenly struck me that my sister Wink wanted to move up here and, though she'd been thinking of buying a place - no one thought of taking away Rose's home! - she might like to move in. So, in short, we asked and she said yes.
It's been several months' process, but she finally moved in this week. And all is well.
