I have taken a break after the rush to get the doors finished.
Firstly, I needed to upgrade my computer, and ended up with a new box and Windows 8.1 I made a mistake, everybody I spoke to says I should have gone for 7. VERY steep learning curve!
I also had to do a new WOF on our car to stay road legal, that took some time to fix a torn CV boot.
We had plenty of rain this month, and the profiles that will go around the door on the inside (the architraves), was paint stripped, and would not dry properly. As a last resort, I put them inside next to the fireplace. The last few bits are to be sanded, and then the process of cutting and joining the bits will start.
On Saturday I invited our grandson over to help me tidy up with all the rubbish lying around. That was done sweetly.
We have taken pictures of the outside of the patio door. This also shows the deck and veranda. Nice northerly aspect.
Great to see you on the blog again. The northerly view is beautiful and restful, so country squire like.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy it, you earned it.
Keep it up and hopefully we will see again next sunday.
