A day full of reflection for me, 33years since my eldest sister died aged just 32, and final twist of the knife, she was a few months pregnant.
Long walk this afternoon and this evening I will get to the bottom of a decent bottle of wine. RIP Deborah x

Something of a reflective day too working under the shadow of Grenfell Tower custom fitting the new slide to this old unit.

Sorry to read that, Sam. I hope a good walk helped bring some peace to such a tragedy, and a good bottle of wine will bring pleasure. I have some sense of how you feel - my older brother died for no good reason when he was just 21.

Life - and death - can be a real *******. Enjoy that wine. I'm having one, too. Maybe two, too.

Good morning all....Hope all your mothers have a lovely mother days.....Need to clean out the garage today After filling it with Liz’s mums shiiiit as she is moving. Other than that who knows where the day will go......Not far with Welsh lockdown rules I suspect. But hey booked in for a haircut on Thursday thank goodness. Great to know having an haircut in Wales is more important then sending our children back to school.

Morning all, going with the flow today, got son and youngest grandson (within childcare bubble) coming by later for Mother’s Day.

Have fun all...

One of the few benefits of having grown up children living with us is that they treat their mum on mother’s day. That means WE have had breakfast in bed and that WE will have our Sunday roast all cooked for us.
Happy days :cool:

Morning all, a few light fittings to change something more modern than the norm here. Sloly dragging the interior design of the house out of the 1970s to something more current. Worrying things is house was only built in 2006

Is that wet behind the tiles?

Was....progress:

  • remove rotten wood
  • treat structure with wet rot hardner
  • leave silicone solvent overnight
  • clean out
  • board out
  • expanding foam the gap
Luckily I can tell the wife that the foam needs 8hrs to cure before cutting back so into the garage to remove the front Rosso seats out the GTV for replacement torn internally base lumber foam and dyeing (at work) and start removing the driveshafts on the R14 for new gaiters and gearbox shaft seal.

Looks like tiles over tiles which may explain the lack of Adhesion

Indeed so have decided not to turn this into a bath out tear down, going to board out the area (half done in pic above) which takes the brunt of the shower having removed the over tiling.

Really happy with the seal where the boarding meets the bath, it goes down an inch below the bath and siliconed in as stage one of a 3 part sealing remedy.

All because of this in our newly done kitchen:
