I have had a bit of a rubbish day with build stuff being a drain on the nerves but have done two listings.

Drain man and electrician were here this morning, so hopefully the septic tank is now operational. Electrician how has an idea of what work needs doing over the rest of this year, and has said he'll fit it in when we're ready which is nice.

Well done on listings.
I have not done too much today. Put yet more decluttering into recycling.

That sounds a satisfying and productive job @beanielou 🥂
Have done another two listings. Can you tell I've got the fear about having to buy another million build things 😁
