LOVELY SMELL OF NEW WOOD

The on going saga of the bathroom leak....to start the day a loo on the landing and yucky water on the landing carpet..good job its being changed hey!!!

l'm afraid the leak from the shower is still there after all this work too...really at a loss new sealer strip from www so fingers crossed yet again!!

so many cables and stuff under the old floor boards!!!

a working box from the old emersion heater was still live and under the floor boards!! help

Why do builders sweep all the rubbish under the floor boards?.....cleared it all out as we went

Proof...l did my bit too !

yards of cable had been left too...glad we did all this and we now know its all tidy and cleared....we really wish we'd done the bathroom ourselves in the 1st place would at least have been done properly...cowboy plumber!!!

hey presto a new wooden floor...well as much as we could replace anyway and the smell of new wood is gorgeous when you walk in the bathroom now

A couple of broken tiles to replace a loo that won't flush unless you tape the side hehehe.....something sticking Phil says!!!!

A good clean every where a coat of paint on the ceiling and lay a floor covering....

But what do we cover it with?....as we haven't removed the bath the floor is still tiled under it so now have to find something to do the new bit!!

Phil wants carpet and l like the idea of soft and fluffy but CARPET!!! in a bathroom not so sure

watch this space

TAPESTRY CROCHET

Gave it a go this morning learnt a lot in the 1st few rows like the single crochet stitch used can be in both colours!....to give a sharper line

Loved this bag done in the TAPESTRY CROCHET METHOD....

Gone from the chunky to the fine...not so easy to start with...eyesight going and the light wasn't so good in bed this morning hehe

But l've had to stop playing 'cos the bathroom floor is calling...new boards delivered late yesterday so we need to remove the loo and get the floor down

FINGERS CROSSED....the leak seems to have been stopped!

Poor James has a £550 excess on his car to pay.....but he will get a hire car while it's poorly

just what he could have done without 1st month of full pay ans he's got a huge bill!

K's BAG MY PRESSIE A SICK BATHROOM AND A BIT OF RUBBER

Only 4 colours but l'd run out of the beige and couldn't remember where l'd got it from ooops!

Was ROBIN DK Acrylic and I found a ball in the tiny wool shop in town

so made great head way this morning so not far off finished

Added a bit of a ripple...now do l go back to straight again and do the draw string or do a strap and open top?

What do you think K?

A pressie for me! xx

Another friend gave me a beautiful recycled felted cream flower last night and l absolutely adore it...one of my favourite colours......thank you so much Kaz making something special for this little beauty...watch this space!!! lol

You can't have it Kathryn HEHEHE.......its all mine but I will make something similar for your bag because it does look lovely on your bag?

Had a couple of days of not feeling quite well myself!!....ok this morning though

Maybe l came out in sympathy with the very sick bathroom!!!.....pipe work all sorted now.....but the shower cubicle was still leaking from the one corner........gggggggrrrrrrrrrrr said Pmacs

Been a real problem for a couple of years now and we decided the tiled floor had just got to come up......and that's the 'royal we' Pmacs did it all l just pushed a couple of bits of pipe..hehe

He removed all the sealer and resealed it all last night now we have to wait and see!!

Then we're going to lay new floor boards and a new floor covering.....something we can lift easily if needs be!

Thought RUBBER maybe for the new floor covering!
