Ok so I have taken two extra days off to clear the cellar, in hope that we can store kitchen equipment and ornaments/paintings down there whilst the building work is going on.
OMG the cellar is HUGE and I am only clearing half of it! I think the previous owner was some kind of hobbit DIY'er as there is so much building junk.
Cleaned the washing machine, desk, and tv to donate to British Heart Foundation. Defrosted the fridge also going!
Found old curtains, rugs, books, all the books which can be salvaged go to charity with the curtains and clothes. Do a quick run round the corner and then wash the car it's filthy. Soon I will be woman with a white van! Need one!
Went to Shannon's Garden centre after they said help yourself to pallets, This is to put in the cellar to prevent items being damaged by damp. The do not fit in the car! It's so annoying!
Find pile of BH's medical books, tons have rotten and have wood louse nice! Save half dump the rest after begging bin men to take more rubbish yay!
Having a quick rest - well it is my holiday! Spotted lovely sofa online and fab fabric, sold the navy leather one it's being collected this weekend!

Now the lighting is annoying, sold the fisherman ones and want to get something ultra glam and adult. So getting three of these Chandeliers to sit above the Kitchen island.
