The last few days, I have awoken to a constant tap tap tapping ALL morning.  It’s this guy, laboriously repairing the roof and guttering in the little house just outside my window.  I can’t see a ladder anywhere, so I am interested to see how he gets on to the roof… even though the tapping is a little annoying, it’s not too bad, almost hypnotic, and far less annoying than the noise made by building machinery or drills and other such nuisances.
