We went to town this morning, and at a flea market bought a plaque: I am retired, I was tired yesterday, I'm tired again today.

That sums up what we have been doing this last two weeks. The bathroom has been painted, walls and ceiling. Next job would be to fit the cornices and battens to the ceiling, and the architraves to the window. Lack of funds means we cannot buy the toilet or the waste pipes we need.

I must admit, there is other work to do. The floor will need scrubbing with lacquer thinners and then a coat or two of varnish.

We had light showers all week, and we are hoping for sunshine in the next week. I should really finish the store room that I started more than a month ago, provided it is nice and sunny, without any wind.
