May Day

I am at home, awaiting the arrival of all the new bathroom stuff. The hobbits are coming back tonight and tomorrow to start the installation. We can't have the shower for a couple of weeks though. It can't go in until the tiles are in - and we can't buy the tiles until next weekend. Or, we can, but I have a 15% off Homebase (think Bunings only slightly classier) voucher which is only valid next weekend. The tiles we want are expensive. If we can get them for 15% off then we can wait for the shower!

The sun is shining. It's a beautiful day. And this is what the garden looked like at about half past eight this morning:

12:45 update:

The bathroom has arrived!!!!!! It's all sat in its boxes in the lounge room waiting to be unpacked and installed. The disadvantage to having a bathroom delivered is the need to shift all the furniture in the lounge room out the way so the deliverers can come in and out of the front door which is mostly only used for the receipt of large items. It demonstrates that what you have fondly assumed is a shiny, clean, and sparkling room is actually incredibly dusty and FULL of spiders and cob webs.

But I think I'll wait until after the bulk of the stuff is in its final place before embarking on a cleaning program.

The afternoon is all mine. I've done most of the Saturday things. I might go and do the Saturday shopping. Not quite sure what I'll do when it really is Saturday
