The first 3 are stunning - each one is special in it's own way.

The autumnal hedge is great - well spotted

As for the funghi - oh wow - that first one - never seen a collection like that before.

Well I've just had my celery soup I couldn't have yesterday - it was very yummy

Update - kitchen ceiling is being plastered

Gas fitter due in about an hour

'scuse me ?

What's wrong with alcohol - I intend to have some tonight - I really NEED it

Do parrots eat prawns ?

Now drinking hot coffee

So do I - oh well - I'll have it tomorrow .

This total refit is really rather stressful . Having said that I'm glad I finally decided to get everything ripped out and start from the 4 bare walls.

We have found some rather nasty things so basically the kitchen is being rewired as well

I dread to think what this will cost at the end BUT the thought of a gas hob and a gas double oven instead of a Halogen hob [ and only 1 of its 2 rings could be properly controlled , the other 2 rings were radiant and as s l o w as d e a t h ] is helping

I'm actually going to be able to bake cakes again - not done that for about 12 years

Nope - we have ensured that the freezer will always be on a different circuit from the rest of the kitchen .

Oh I'll have my microwave working tonight soup will just be put in the wee fridge for tomorrow - but I was really looking forward to it .

My boxes of kitchen units are arriving [ according to the suppliers ] between 10.30 and 1.30 today - 35 mins to go - I do hope they will be here soon

Since I now have an empty shell for a kitchen , my microwave is up stairs in my newly done sitting room [ along with the fridge that works in the car ] , so since my wonderful wee decorator guy [ who doubles as a sparky ] has gone to get his lunch I went up and popped the Celery soup I took out of the freezer first thing this morning to heat it for my lunch only to find





he's been working on tracing where something was connected and has knocked off my upstairs power circuit !! So having to have yet another cold lunch

I was looking forward to that soup too

Once he's back I'll get him to make sure he puts the electricity back on there.

I use Photobucket - nice and easy

Oh well - didn't spot that - was having a break from the Kitchen that looks like a bomb has hit it .

I'm going to have to have a new ceiling as well
