2nd June

Today, whilst I slogged away at the desk at work, (I've got a few games of Words With Friends going - it's great but I am sure Liam is getting help!) many things happened "upstairs". Actually, it was a pretty bleak day at the office. A ninety year old "madam", who should have developed some manners by now one would think, hung up on me. Then, later,  I had to put up with her making aspersions about me loudly in the waiting room. I am fed up with old bitches. I want to spend my days with Sally!)

The awning man came, the electrician came, Steve came and the mirror blokes came. The result is that we have a finished awning - well almost. It still needs a brace of some sort. We have a fixed light in the kitchen ; we have an embryonic plan for a timber deck to replace the green slop and we have a wall of mirror in the bathroom.

Added to this I have the lovely news that our brass bed is finished and will arrive tomorrow evening. The man who worked on it in Sydney has been excellent in organising transport for the old dear. He has sent me photos of the bed and wants me to tell him how we like it when it is in place.

So, here are some quick night photos. (Lester is still downstairs dealing with the paperwork and we are going to eat Spanish tonight - to make up for a day with ninety year old "madams"...) Quality of photos dubious.


Awning looking east

Awning looking west - all the louvres are moveable


Sally likes the cover so much her eyes turned green!

It's hard to show this bathroom without a wide angle: The piece of wood, of course, is temporary

The whole wall is glass: green in the shower and two clear abutting mirrors complete the wall

The mirror on the left is the one that broke two weeks ago. I will have to do something with those towels now they are in duplicate.
