Rain!

I am fed up with the rain.......we have had so much lately and now it looks as though it's going to cost us a lot of money!  The garage roof is leaking !!  Himself has already started on the clean- up........he had our old kitchen units out there as a work bench and storage - they are in soggy bits down the dump now! and the tools and pots of paint that were stored in them have been dried off and are sitting at the other end of the garage! 
This roof has already had a 'patching' job done on it a couple of times since we moved here but it looks as though this time it will need something more drastic! and expensive!!
He is going to have a proper look later on today - now it has stopped raining for a while.........but it is soooo cold out there at the moment ,  just 2c with ground frost..............not good conditions to be climing a metal ladder - he could stick to it!
Oh well if it has to have a new roof it does but that will mean less money for our holiday to Canada next year.  We are going to Vancouver for a family members wedding and are going to ride the Rocky mountaineer train to Calgary and then fly to Montreal to see the rest of the family. 
We will be away all of August and some of September too.    Everything is booked except where we are staying in Montreal - we are hoping that the family will take care of us there........a sister and five neices should be able to have us a few days at a time don't you think?  if not we will go into the Comfort Inn nearby, the family all live fairly close together on the west side of Montreal and not far from the hotel is a fabric shop - the one that is the reason why I do P&Q.  La Maison d' Calico in Point Clare. (this site is in Canadian French but there is a button to change it to English on the site bar)
