DIY

A few months back we started work on our front room. We had been wanting to do it for a while and when the ceiling started falling down we got to work!










We took the chimney breast and then took the room back to brick and the whole ceiling down.







It was a very messy, dusty few weeks and at times I wondered what we were doing! We soon had it plaster boarded and the plasterer in. It then stayed like that for a while with life getting in the way of completing it. A few weeks ago John started work on it again and it is now almost done :-)









More to follow, should be fully done in the next week or two. After a weekend of shopping too I've got most of the accessories for the room too!

Well done Ethan!

At the weekend Ethan took part in this years sailing regatta at our sailing club. He did a great job and took part in all of the 3 races. Overall (39 sailors took part of all abilities) Ethan didn't come in last in hi little boat :-) In the junior section he got a 2nd place and was presented with a trophy!
