Just about to prepare dinner so just a quick update.

First of all, she is now in the bath after falling in the mud whilst out at the play park (do you know that feelong lol) and getting her school jacket muddy all over :(.

We managed to get her a nice warm jacket for going off (Regatta).

Why/ how do they always land in mud, even when it's the only puddle around? Your post reminded me of a day trip to London with my three boys...got off the train and middle son managed to slip full length into a patch of mud....not easy to clean a coat and child off with a pack of tissues and a spare disposable nappyo_O. I had a student nursery nurse with me who was initiated into the reality of children quite fast! She was a lovely girl, but was horrified at how messy kids can get. Lovely day, went to Natural History Museum...but they still talk about the mud rather than the dinasours, when recalling that trip!
 
Got most of the kitchen plumbing in place and ripped/took up the bathroom floor yesterday. Joists are in good nick, so one job less.
My builder mate is coming on Monday to fit a smaller kitchen window, then we can position and fit the new units etc.
 
I like the double glazing salesmen that used to ring in the U,K .I kept asking questions for as long as my patience lasted then said would I have to take my double glazing out to put yours in ,quite amazing how quick they rang of.
 
Morning, another decorating day at the daughter’s house, trying to get it all sorted before the next van trip. Cracking storm last night.
 
Morning Dave, good luck with the decorating: we're taking up the kitchen floor to take out the old pipework (3/4") and lay new 15mm. Well that's the plan, probably end up shopping :rolleyes:
 
Oooh, well done Chris, get it weighed in ?. Decorating of hall, stairs and landing still going to plan surprisingly, daughter now needs to make a decision on whether to continue with the new wallpaper or colour wash as the walls in good condition now it’s been stripped, decisions decisions ??
 
Got masses of timber being delivered tomorrow, as Dave is starting on the extension to the lodge. Can't wait till we have a sunroom and new main bedroom...think it might be a bit hot to start the big work tomorrow, so going to collect bricks while he sorts out the storage of the wood. Footings all done last week:)
 
Decorating abandoned for the day, back home contemplating whether a beer is a good idea, would certainly induce an afternoon snooze ??

Snap! We've just stopped as well - too hot for us wrinklies, but I think all I'll get is a pot of tea:(
 
Nice start to the morning weather wise. Off to the daughter’s for a couple of hours decorating and then back home to try and rescue some of the plants that have been battered after 48 hours of rain. Then later it’s sports at the grandkids nursery/pre-school ......
