By the Skin of our Teeth


Well we have the official word – we are safe (at least for now). They have posted signs around the area stating the building numbers they are going to demolish and thankfully we are not on it.

The plan is to demolish all the building to our north up to our back wall, which does mean that we potentially could have an entrance to our north which would be good, and since they are demolishing to create a green belt we may even be able to make use of the grass on that side. :)

This good news was marred somewhat though by the landlord, clearly under the influence of his overbearing wife, who pitched up asking for more money. Unfortunately for him, and fortunately for us, he can’t do anything since we all signed the contract. Clearly he thought that our debatably improved location should earn him more money…

  • When I saw your message I thought it was from my dad who is also Robert Stedall. I know there are also some Stedall's in Canada but there are not many of us out there. If you are interested in the familly tree get in touch via skype - username: omstedall - my Dad has spent more time than most people would researching it!

About

Salted Lolly is the blog of Olly Stedall, a Brit living and working in Beijing, China. Why Salted Lolly you ask? Well it's an anagram of Olly Stedall, which may not be a great name but hopefully it's better than the alternative - Versatile Doll (!) - an anagram of Oliver Stedall.
