Actually we got back on Monday, but it's been one of those weeks.
Currently waiting for a friend to turn up, he's told several people he is coming to see me this afternoon, but not me. This is slightly annoying, as I was going to be out this afternoon, but now I have to stay in, because I don't see him very often and it might be important. (sigh)
I'm not sure whether to alert you to this, but it's a bit too strange to let it pass by - Maddy Prior is best known as the singer from Steeleye Span, if you're wondering where you've heard of her, she's also done an album of Wesley songs, and a few Christmas ones. Now she is weirding people out it seems.
We're having a bathroom fitted at the moment, which is very exciting, but which also means, obviously, we don't have a bath. Why is it that the point at which you have no bath you feel like having a long soak? Still, lovely bathroom coming up, much better than the peeling damp, grotty peach and cream coloured monstrosity that was.
I'm finding myself really looking forward to Christmas this year, Rhys should be able to get some time off, and we plan to kick back for a bit, maybe watch some of the films and other dvds we keep buying / renting / recording. Mostly though, it will be great to have pretty much all the major work on the house done, and just enjoy it for a bit. Until we decide that we want a door there, and a real fireplace here and here, and new carpets in those rooms, and a re-paint of this bit...
