The trials and tribulations of the renovations of barn and brain in rural Cheshire.....

Through The Keyhole





Let's look at the garden on Monday - who'd have a garden like this one?





Guess all the back-breaking work paid off. Had a meeting at silly o'clock with John The Architect, Phil The Boss and Steve The Foreman to practically finalise the renovations. They want to be off site in about two weeks time which means..........hurrah.............we can move in soon. Can't wait to see what we've got in Colin, it's been so long since we've seen all our things. We had a bit of a 'snagging' tour with them all which resulted in some more brick renovation, spotted by Hawkeye Fif (note the backdoor, now in place), and a decorator being appointed. We've had a hasty re-evaluation of paint colours tonight; having looked at our original ideas we think we must have been drunk, momentarily colourblinded or otherwise afflicted when we chose them.

Whilst Dad and Fif went on a pre-election leaflet run I only had to sleep for 3 hours this afternoon - don't know what's wrong, perhaps I've developed narcolepsy in my sleep? Mind you, after the silly o'clock meeting I had to bath Benji, partly for therapy and partly because he'd rolled in something unmentionable which took ages to get cleaned off.
