    That sounds like a good job done Alfie - wish I could pick up similar, but nothing like that here.

    Snowed this morning & a little flurry tonight - really cold. But roads clear so trip over to Inverness was fine.

    Skins arrived & hairy cat is attacking them - look better than I thought they would & slightly bigger than I thought too. Now Lucielle what am I due you for Postage?

    Bought exterior varnish as the Danish oil is not really adequate on the doors as it's been torrential rain each day since they done a couple of months back - even though I did a good few coats - it's not enough.

    Phew glad they arrived, was panicking! No charge as you kindly left one behind, which is looking very cozy on a chair.

    L you really must let me pay for P.

    Glad you like it.

    Sunny here & calm - how odd that seems, but it's been snowing through the night, but only laying on the tops. Nice to see the sun.

    Yes, it was good just seeing the sun. Sorry you were working RAS.

    I had to varnish the front door &Bit's still open as it isn't dry. It's really cold, crisp, but DRY.

    Lit another bonfire to burn paper work & stuff.

    It wasn't quite dry here, but sunshine predominated. Unfortunately, the toaster expired and we'd run out of some basics, so I spent much of the day on a shopping expedition, instead of tidying up the garden beds as originally planned. :(

    I never found Danish oil lasted, choille. It's a nice concept, not having a skin over your wood, but the reality is that one's needed in our climate.

    I once lived in an attic flat alfie: 5 flights of stairs to reach the front door. You didn't tend to forget things when nipping over the road to the shops! :rotfl:
