So the house hasn't changed dramatically recently. There was the excessive amount of work involved in the understairs* change and new fusebox, which is a lot of change, but that's been it for ages! Anyway, we have finally started moving again. Thanks to Ben and Joe there have been a few changes today... starting with the architrave and extending to the new lights in the kitchen. Hopefully we can get that floor back down soon and the house will be finished! Obviously getting the floor down will not be the last thing, but it might kick us into gear!
Well that's it for now, I'm pretty tired after all the house work. Hopefully we'll get some house pics up soon!
*Under the stairs is a bit of a confusing term as James Player explained; When Di asked him to put his coat in the cupboard under the stairs he looked at her, went quiet for a while then cocked his head to one side, before sympathetically explaining an undeniable truth... "But Aunty Narna, you haven't got any stairs!"**
** In James' defence I must say that the confusion occurs regularly; One day when Di was explaining to Neil that the cupboard under the stairs had been knocked through he too looked sideways and said "But you live in a flat! You don't have stairs!"***
*** To clear up the confusion let me explain, we live in a conversion... There are stairs to the people who live upstairs. There has to be stairs, otherwise their flat would be very difficult to get into! Hence they have stairs, but incidentally no cupboard under the stairs, and we have a cupboard under the stairs, though obviously no actual stairs! It sounds like a badly worded maths problem, along the lines of "As I was going to St Ives..."
