Today is Sunday and the day before our chapter begins and so a quiet day. However, the Manummel Province today celebrates their Province day as it is the feast of their patron, Pope St Pius X whose saved their existence was threatened when they were a Third Order Regular OCD Congregation. So happy feast to all Manjummel OCD.
In a mood of mild celebration Shemil and I walked up to the site. On the way we passed one of the great characters in our community- the goose. The goose hisses at anyone coming or going, friend or foe alike. Whatever about his welcome he is the sole survivor of a flock. It is odd that he is nameless but he is not so much a pet as a watchgoose.

| The underground water tank now has a lid |
We walked up to see the underground water tank with its new lid. Because of the rain there was a lot more water on the building site than in the tank. If you are wondering how we got such a nice aerial photo of the tank then see the image below. The photos were taken from the top left pile.
