Just some pretty pictures!


It was a bit toasty-hot today, so I had my cup o chah in the shade looking at the side of our lovely house......


The other side aint quite as pretty - but it's not far off! Just a few more things to do!


The kitchen tiles are on and don't they look fabulous??


Another pretty flower in the field/garden. I had to do something whilst drinking my cuppa!

Kitchen finished!!!

Visited the site today to see the handiwork of our kitchen fitter (another Dave!) and look at it! Apart from the plinths, it's all done and it's gorgeous in all it's IKEA glory...... Kudos to "Kitchen Dave" for 1. getting it done so quickly & 2. for making it look so fabulous!


Dave inspects the dishwasher:


The mosaic tiles, which will be the splashback - foxy, huh?
(I know they look wibbly, but I put them there just to take the pic - they're not fixed)

The view from our bedroom now that the copse has been cleared:


Our wetroom - Dave chose the colour scheme!! (shocked face!)

Celebrate!


Jerome (the electrician's assistant) had been to his girlfriends scan & found out they were having a healthy baby boy - cue much drinking of Champagne (in plastic cups - how posh are we)...

Ch-ch-ch-changes!


Things are moving on! Still a way to go, but look at what a difference a few days makes:

Kitchen, before:


During:
(nice to see Dave & "kitchen Dave" working hard....)


Nearly done!


The splashback tiles and oak worksurface - awesome!!

It's movin' on!


Ludovic (plumber) and Dave discuss the finer points of gas pipes.....


Our bedroom!


Our bathroom (wetroom)!


My favourite bit of wall - I can't help but touch this bit every time I walk past - saddo I know.....

Been a while!


Well, Clive and I went to collect some of the beautiful stone flooring the other week so he could lay some out for the kitchen fitter. Oh, it is so so gorgeous...... (and made right here in the Lot)




Dave's first visit to the site since his op - he was very impressed!
