It’s been quite a while since I gave an update on my kitchen. I can now use the kitchen although there is still a lot to do in it eg finish fitting cupboard doors, tongue and grooving and shelves on the walls, paint walls, paint cupboard doors.
Harry is concentrating on the utility room at [...]

Things are never as easy as you hope, are they? The cooker arrived yesterday as expected but yet again they found a reason not to connect. The cooker connection point was too high up…..funny that wasn’t mentioned by the guy last week. So they connected the gas – this fuels the top rings and left [...]

In Currys guide for installation they mention nothing about the position of the cooker electric switch. Harry is now going to have to move the switch and my cooker is going to come next Saturday. Harry’s [...]

Update on kitchen:
There’s still loads to do but it is beginning to look like a kitchen again. Hopefully all being well the new cooker is arriving today. Also friends are coming soon to collect the old cooker, as they want it for a house they let out.

Work still progresses and its good to look back on it and see how much has been done. The photo below was taken last night before we brought the worksurface in from the garage. Today the cut out needs doing for the sink.

Kitchen work progresses slowly but to be fair to Harry, there has been a lot to do and he doesn’t get much time.
The plumbing has taken a lot of time and so has cutting one of the units to fit round the pipes. Here is a photo of progress so far.

The kitchen work continues.
Harry has moved the pipe work that comes down the wall onto the other wall, done some plastering [ not his favourite job!!] and constructed one unit. It’s slow progress but at least it’s progress. I’m sure it will be all worth it.

Have been extremely busy at school, so didn’t find time yesterday to post. In fact last night I wasn’t home from work til after 9.30pm, so didn’t feel like doing much. The marking is building up again, although I am trying to find strategies to deal with lower school marking such as self assessment and [...]
