Let's Summon Hunks

Ah, the perils of keeping most of the museum open while we work on the castle keep and entrance areas.

No matter how much tape and gunk is used on the fire barriers between the works and the museum, some mischievous motes of dust are going to sneak around it and lodge themselves in a smoke alarm in one of the galleries. And lo, it was so …

You can tell by the headless-chicken, panicked running-around going on that we didn't manage to set fire to the castle. Looks like someone's going to have to go round with the gunk gun and re-seal the fire barriers and the standard lecture on keeping the dust down will be wheeled out.

So, hunky firemen and bulky builders got a half-hour of fresh air this morning before all trooping back inside and heading for the kettle to queue for a brew.

Some things are the same worldwide! It's either the kettle for a cuppa or hitting the food truck for a coffee! xoxo

Gotta get our priorities right, Savannah. xoxo

Perhaps the culprit was not a dust mote but a bulky builder in need of a break.

Those builders certainly are bulky, Petrea.
