    kitchen now looks presentable, apart from the mound of ironing on the dinning table. that needs sorted later today as ironing collection booked for monday.

    water survey dude came out and im getting a meter, but the numbskulls that were the previous owners have block paved over the outside stop tap for the water so that needs rectifying at some point. however have an inside shut off for the water so its not that bad.

    ok off for to a HHC or ???? in the spare room as my parents are coming down for a weekend at some point and at the moment i wouldnt be able to get the bed fully out :eek:
