Extra stress when it decided to chuck it down with rain &#8211; only for a few minutes in the end, but still a rush to get tools and timber out of the rain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/www.meanboyfriend.com\/overdue\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/IMG_6020-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-732\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.meanboyfriend.com\/overdue\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/IMG_6020-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.meanboyfriend.com\/overdue\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/IMG_6020-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.meanboyfriend.com\/overdue\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/IMG_6020-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/www.meanboyfriend.com\/overdue\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/IMG_6020-768x768.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.meanboyfriend.com\/overdue\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/IMG_6020-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, http:\/\/www.meanboyfriend.com\/overdue\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/IMG_6020-2048x2048.jpg 2048w, http:\/\/www.meanboyfriend.com\/overdue\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/IMG_6020-800x800.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This is where I&#8217;d got to by 4pm.
