What a lovely weekend

the weather this weekend was fab, beautiful sunshine all weekend.

We spent all of the weekend inside the new house, painting !! What a waste, but had to be done.
Jack had a lovely time in the garden though, making the most of the sun.

This week we have had the new cooker and sink plumbed in (and christened the cooker with bacon sarnies on Saturday !). The new fridge/freezer arrived, which is lovely cos now we can keep the milk and stuff chilled.
We also had to put 3 coats of "Earthstone" paint on the lounge walls ! The walls are sooooo dry and have obviously not been painted for 10 years, so the paint just sinks in. 3 coats makes it look nice, and covers up some of the imperfections too !

I have Thurs/Fri off this week, so the plan is to gloss the woodwork in the lounge and kitchen, and start the painting in the hall/stairs.
Kev is off Fri too, so we will rip out the old carpet and finish painting the stairs and bathroom.
And the kitchen wall tiles are due to be finished too !
