Sunday 12th August

Last day of the Olympics. Slow start and quiet morning in the flat after our rather energetic last 2 days. Bit of a chat with Matt who dropped in to pick up some gear. Starting to wind down our time here and beginning to pack up.

Watched Men’s Marathon whilst doing chores, bit of a nap in the afternoon and later spent the evening at home watching the whole of the closing ceremony.
Lawns at back of flats were mowed today, first time in quite a long time as grass was about a foot high,  plus people from downstairs flat outside having BBQ in evening, first time we have seen any signs of life in garden. Have met man from this flat once in hallway, woman from opposite flat once in hallway and new couple moving in above us once the day they moved in tho we do hear them going up and down the stairs. Met children from flat across the landing once the first week we were here, then next weekend all gone and sign up outside re a flat sold in this building, Not a lot of neighbourly interaction !!  
Out our bedroom window I have been watching progress on replacing decking over a roof of a ? garage next door. Could be a really nice little sunny private spot. Has obviously been used as garden as lots of dead plants in pots  and has staircase already there.
