Temporary Accommodation
Uncle Bert’s fishing shack
Random word: 153: “cumbrous”
Charlie helped me do repairs and renovations to Uncle Bert’s fishing shack so we could all live there temporarily. One room had been used for storage but most of the contents was old broken or unusable furniture and odds and ends.
It was a cumbrous task clearing the junk out of the room, and renovating, but we managed by working well together, and it wasn’t long before it was liveable.
“So you think Ramsay is responsible for the fire?” I asked.
“Without a doubt! He is probably on the phone with his henchmen right now confirming everything went to plan.”
