Oh well.  At least that’s one bit of damage that you don’t have to worry will 
happen – it already has ;-)

I was hoping to go part-time in my new job before too long, but it turns out 
that the renovation of our annex building (an old farm building) is going to 
cost twice as much as we originally budgeted.  This was because the original 
renovator, some 30 years ago, did not do the job properly and the structure 
needs a steel frame to brace it agains collapse :-(

At least I’m enjoying my job and wouldn’t mind doing it for a couple of years.
