Must stop complaining


about the rain. Guess what? It has hardly rained at all for the last week.

This week we hired a container to put the hedge in (did I mention that we cut it down?). What we thought would be a five minute job turned out to more like two hours plus raking the lawn afterwards. Bits of hedge everywhere, including inside the house as Zizou thinks it is great fun to carry twigs around and then leave them wherever he is. Anyway, job done. We plan to replace the fence with a lovely stone wall......watch this space....

Meanwhile another "project" of ours is to get new stairs inside the house. We had a stair man round to measure up and he said our stairs are far too big and we don't need a landing halfway. We can have much more modern and smaller stairs which will give us more room downstairs. Off to the showroom we shall go, to look at different models. p.s. we didn't get a price from the stair man yet.........

Looks like you have a busy time ahead but it will all look really nice.

I guess with the stairs being open fluff bucket might fall down the gaps
