Again a little while and we will see it
It's Passion Sunday. The statues in the Catholic
churches are swathed in purple (or used to be when I was a frequenter of
churches). We're in the countdown to Easter. If you've been following the saga
of our corner shop, about to be a cafe, you'll undoubtedly remember that Easter
is the latest of a series of promised opening dates. There's been definite
movement. I don't know if you can tell from these phone photos, but the balcony
with its bullnose awning is coming along well. A stylish grey paint job is under
way on the upper outside of the building. We've had some heavy rain -- who can
complain? -- but the two or three guys who've been up on the scaffolding for
weeks now seem to be cheerful about progress. I'm not banking on an Easter
rising, but I'll be surprised if Revolver (as the shop is to be named) fails to
be there by the Ascension Thursday. A little while and we won't see it, but
again a little while
