September – Last Week\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Robert has been working so hard again this past week – targets to achieve before our electrician comes at the beginning of October to service the other half of the ‘West Wing’. Of course, he met the target with a day to spare. There is so much ‘finishing off’\u00a0work to do, cutting small sections of plasterboard to fit into corners or along doors, batons to fix for the ceilings, holes to be made for switches and plugs, supports fixed for mirrors, heaters, cupboard etc.\u00a0 All of which takes a great deal of time, sticking up a sheet of plasterboard makes such a difference to the room, but what takes the time is all has gone on behind that sheet of plasterboard.<\/span><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Master bedroom – Awaiting electricity<\/span><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Back wall of master bedroom – awaiting last few panels of plasterboard.<\/span><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Master en-suite, plumbing completed, only requires connecting to facilities and electric switches activated.<\/span><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Viewing from Master Bedroom – this is the entrance to the en-suite and the walk-in closet<\/span><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Rather than spend \u20ac800 to \u20ac2000 on a purpose-built\u00a0clothes hanger\/organiser, we decided to build our own.<\/span><\/h4>\n

This space will have ample room to hang clothes at two heights, shelving and drawers for other articles of clothing and shoes.<\/span><\/h4>\n

(Robert has not told me what area ‘he’ has planned for his clothes – so, I’ll let you know about that later.)<\/span><\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The dryer and more storage cupboards to go on the left wall – this room will be the main storage area for everything!<\/span><\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I am so pleased with the wildflowers at the front of the property – they have really come on beautifully.<\/span><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Too far away to see from here, the wildflowers all the way along the fence dividing our place from next door, has a similar display of flowers.<\/span><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The colors are radiant and bright<\/span><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So simple and so pretty<\/span><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We get many hikers and walkers passing along the front of our property – it is very satisfying to see several people stop\u00a0to take photographs.<\/span><\/h4>\n

NOW! What is this coming next?<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"Aaaah – Yes!\u00a0 The dreaded Moviprep – that powder which when mixed with one litre of water and sent down the gullet, will be the ‘prep’ to ‘move’ whatever gets in its way.\u00a0 Preparing one’s colon for close inspection.\u00a0 How I dreaded this day – 29th September. However, I prepared myself well, cut down on food and what I did eat was very easily digested.\u00a0 Had the procedure Friday afternoon and everything went off perfectly – notabother.<\/span><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I ordered a polytunnel on Amazon and it arrived within three days.\u00a0 Robert and I thought that this would be a perfect solution for storage. We cannot decide on a garden shed type building, but winter is coming in and the garden equipment needs to be undercover. This PT is perfect.<\/span><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>I bought a composter\u00a0 – I hate to waste the vegi\u00a0peelings and the bits and pieces of food that go ‘off’ or don’t get eaten, now it goes into the compost and at least will be doing some good. Only thing is, when I open the lid, a cloud of little midgy flies come up.\u00a0 Have you any idea how to stop them?<\/span><\/h4>\n
