Paint , work , paint , work.
Very busy at the moment. We emptied half of B&Q warehouse over the New Year period thanks to their 15% sale.
The staff there say "Hello again" whenever I walk in , one of them has memorised my PIN number and I am putting my name forward for a reserved parking place.
We've had the house for 5 weeks but were away for 2 of them. So far had a new Damp proof fitted. Ripped a load of stuff out, and completed the main bedroom. We also have a garage full of decorating supplies, baths, showers, sanitary ware, floor tiles, wall tiles, new doors and handles PLUS a nice storage system for when I put in a bit of a workshop in the garage. The new kitchen is on order, the plasterer is on back order as are 5 new windows and the electrics are 50% thru the 'first fix' stage with the occasional pendant light dangling from the ceiling and NO lighting in the main bathroom. But then there are no tiles , flooring, ceiling or suite and very little plaster in there either. And there is no skirting board anywhere down stairs. Spent a small fortune but no labour costs so far except for the DPC and trying to keep them as small as possible. Running out of money!!!! I buy paint, wood and nails , Louise is busy buying cushions, lamp shades , duvets covers & pillow cases!?
Need to get the job done so the bike can come out of storage!
Roll on the summer
Any one going to be at the Windmill next Tuesday (17th)
