Painting!

The painter (Zoltan) arrived this morning, just one person - supposed to be two, but the other painter is too sunburned! An unlikely excuse in Scotland, but the culprit was a sun bed. However, he just got on with it. He spent so much time preparing every bit, filling in holes, cracks, taping up the woodwork, draping everything in plastic sheeting, even across the windows. He's sprayed the ceiling and the coving, and will do the walls tomorrow.

Jordan came to collect Archie, instead of on Friday, because he's away for a few days to show off the wee new addition to the family back home.

JR went to get new flowers for the window box, and Archie and I spent the afternoon in the kitchen, watching Wimbledon on the iPad.

Here's Archie, admiring the job so far. But wondering where the television is. I do hope I’ll be able to replace all the connections correctly... (I took a photo).
