We called to our local garden centre on Saturday to return something, so we decided to get some breakfast and a coffee while we were there. We were very well entertained at our riverside window table by a pair of robins, a pair of some kind of tit and a couple of little black and white birds dashing here there and everywhere.
Have I ever mentioned my complete lack of knowledge of flora and fauna, my head is just too full of other things for any of this to stick ... the robins are lucky that they mean so much to me.
.The river was hurtling past, right at the very top of the bank, fascinating and very hypnotising to watch while sipping my coffee.
We didn't go for a full Riverford box last week, instead we got a salad bag each and some additional blueberries and another pack of hot cross buns. But ... I've had enough of the hot cross buns now, seasonal eating is good but you can gorge too much on something when it suddenly appears on your radar.
I loved this week's newsletter.
On our way back from the garden centre we called to the bungalow, it had been a few days since I had last seen it and Alan and the builders had been working hard all week.
This is the view from the front door.
This is the old kitchen, who needs windows with glass in them when you can have a wooden board that the wind relocates. 😄
The old living room.
As I said who needs windows, or in this case part of the front wall too. We do seem to have gained a coat hook though. Proper posh!! 😁
The biggest gain of the week is an actual concrete floor in the living/dining/kitchen room.
An actual surface to walk on!!
Just four more layers on top of this and the floor will be done, ah well it's all progress.
Alan and the builders will hopefully have all the floors to this stage by Thursday night, when the builders all down tools and head off to Spain for the Easter weekend. We are obviously paying them far too much. 😄

A lot of hard work. It is looking very promising.
