Morning, happy Thursday
The joiner is making a start on the wardrobes today, he should be finished tomorrow.Have been for a walk this morning, weather a bit dull but dry for now. Have also made some blueberry muffins from a WW recipe in the Ninja. First time I’ve baked in it so very much an experiment. Shall test one with a coffee shortly.DD has been called in early for her second jab today. She had the AZ and felt rough a couple of days later so she’s not looking forward to it.Making the Tesco recipe Carl’s all change casserole for tonight’s dinner as I really enjoyed it last time. Making a meat version for Mr SA. I’m just going to cook it as normal then cook his sausages separately. Might put some mash with his as I don’t think it’ll fill him up.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)7 -

Annoyingly the tap was just the O ring needed replacing. He pulled the tap out no problem where I’d struggled. Although I was trying to be careful not to completely trash it he used brute force.
The painter has come back with a quote £380 which is £100 less than I’d budgeted, so pleased with that. He’s going to do the gloss as well.

The casing of the wardrobes is up. The hanging space is a bit narrower than I thought, equivalent to two double wardrobes which is what we had before, but there are wide shelving units either side and plenty of storage space at the top. He’s putting two rails at half height in each wardrobe though so double the hanging space. There’s also room at the side for a narrow tallboy if I want one. I’ll be able to see what’s what when I can start putting things in there.
The painter can start Monday. Have left a message on answer phone for the flooring man so waiting for him to get back.
