I really thought this was going to more than week ten!
We have tiles and balcony glass, and the building waterproofing that necessitated this whole renovation has been done. Looks like a couple more weeks before the scaffolding comes down, but progress has been made.
Progress has been made in many areas this week,
In reading: On the weekend I started Peter F. Hamilton's Salvation Lost. It's post apocalyptic science fiction, with two timelines, one a near-future one and one a further future one. It's a big book, and the second in a trilogy and it took me ages to remember who, of the many characters were who. I did lots of reading over the weekend and really got into it .And look at that cover:
In audio books: Leon and I followed up Neil Gaiman's American Gods with Neil Gaiman's Anansi Boys. Fantastic narrator, great plot and a really good listen. And another great cover:
I've nearly finished The Rules of Backyard Cricket, and it's been a great listen. It was the free book of the month from Audible a couple of months ago, and I didn't love the description, but the book itself has been compelling, if rather sad.
And in knitting: I finished the baby set (it's blocking) and started a charity hat.
Three strands of sock wool held together and 5mm needles makes for a quick knit!
Next up is socks for Leon.
And that's what I've been up to this week. I'm linking up with Kat from As Kat Knits. Pop over there to see what she and the rest of the Unravellers have been doing this week.

That yarn is a gorgeous blue. It will look lovely knitted up.
