(Told him to avoid it as I'd heard it was bad, but that's probably the wrong thing to say to a boy with a bike *sigh*.) Good job he wasn't in the car. We have accepted defeat re getting to Kessie. Car finally fixed at 4pm this afternoon, but by then not a hope of getting through. Roads here (the ones that are open anyway) were gridlocked. Jax did well to get away when she did...

My last house had an excellent cellar, which housed the boiler, and was an excellent laundry room and store. I miss having it.
