We have a fully working kitchen :-) 27th July 2009

Its been a while again but we have achieved lots!

The flooring is finished in the kitchen/diner and the kitchen is fitted! It took 5 days and the carpenter has done a wonderful job! I'm so glad we decided to pay someone to do it!

Here's the piccys:



Think I need to clean my camera lens as the pictures are a bit fuzzy!

We've also boarded out the loft - well Stuart has, I just passed him things. We also insulated it all up there! What a horrible job!

Next on the list was the stairs. We have almost finished stripping and sanding them. Ive never seen so much dust in my life! They do look lovely! We've decided to have a runner up the stairs now as they are too nice to cover up! Ill have to take some pictures when we've finished.

We are also getting the joiner back to sort out all the doorways and hang the new doors! Got some real bargains from b&q:

Upstairs Doors £89 online but only £24.99 instore!
Downstairs Doors £99 online but only £49.99 instore!

Just got to decide on door handles now. Think these will come from Screwfix as they are quite cheap!

Also went carpet shopping at the weekend! Allied carpets wanted £1600 for 3 bedrooms and landing/stairs (not including underlay). I thought this seemed a lot so we went to a local shop to see what they could offer. £900 including everything! The service was a million times better too!

List of things still left to do:

Fit skirting
Finish floor in lounge and hall
Fit carpets upstairs
Finish tiling bathroom & fit extractor
Pack
Move in!

Its definitely smaller! :-)
