2020++ - smiling and waving and looking so fine

Loving reading the plans for the renovations, sometimes it takes new plans to get our butt into gear! I think this weekend for me is a pretty free weekend so I might possibly tackle a trip to our local tip. My car could also do with a clean so think that might be on the agenda too.

The good thing about our plans is that to keep the cost down I've agreed to do all the tip runs so my car is excused from being  cleaned. 

New Shed (only 6x4 so not a man cave!) arrived this morning 07:30 !!!!!! - lucky I was up - not always the case when WFH

Plans are good. Sharing an Einstein quote: Life is like a bicycle. To keep you balance, you must keep moving.
Have a good day.

Exciting plans!  I'm very jealous that you got a tradesperson so fast... we're having our bathroom done soon, but the guy we use had an 8 month waiting list, so he's not due to start until March  He's fab though, so would rather wait than risk using someone unknown.

Thank you OSHDTH, yes we had been messaging towards the end of last year, but then his other job cancelled and we got to do it early - like I'm coming tomorrow!!.  Its been like Piccadilly Circus round here so far this week we have had the following delivered
* 2 ton of Type 1
* 1 ton of sand
* 10sq m of Vinyl floor
* Bathroom shower & suite
* Bathroom tiling
* Garden shed
* 4 packs of 10 slabs
* 3 bags of concrete
* Two radiators
* A partridge in a pear tree

Just waiting for some gravel and then we're done on Phase 1 (although will need the garden furniture - but OH wants to see the space before deciding on that)

The  partridge in a pear tree is my fave...

Good luck with it all. Will be great when they're done.

true SH - I hoped someone would spot that - even though it was about a month late

Sounds like some great plans underfoot! Bet you cant wait for it to be done 😊

And nice work on the accounts, I find separate accounts so useful to prevent spending money that's actually ear marked for something else.

It was spotted here too, and made me chuckle! 

Good luck with all the works!
