Doors open, sun shining and washing drying on the line again.
How lovely it is to have some sunshine back after the awful weather of the last few days. Sunshine brings out the best in people doesn't it, and living alongside the canal it means that we see lots of dog walkers who always love to stop and pass the time of day if we are at the front of the house. In memory of Mavis we still have a large bowl of fresh drinking water for passing dogs, and it seems to have been very well used today.
There is one big dog that we have nicknamed 'splashy dog', as he has a big drink and liberally splashes water everywhere, the bowl usually needs refilling after his visit. 🐶
I kept it simple, but delicious, and it was really filling. Perhaps there was a little bit too much salmon on that bun ... but sometimes you just have to don't you. 😁
I am now on a shopping go slow after spending all of my Facebook Marketplace profits on stocking the cupboard, the freezer and ordering my favourite crisps direct from the farm they are produced on.
Progress in the bungalow. Were you not tempted to put in under floor heating, as you had all the floors up anyway?
ReplyDeleteCrisps straight from the farm that grew them - that's great.
We are putting in underfloor heating, this is all the preparations for it. The next stage is the mats going down, then Alan will lay the pipes and finally tile on top of them.
DeleteI'm glad you are having sunshine. Looks like there's a lot of work being accomplished at the bungalow. :)
ReplyDeleteSunshine makes all the difference doesn't it. Alan says it's all going to plan. 😀
DeleteFloors!!! How marvelous is that. My goodness that is a huge pile of rubble to move.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
I know!! I never thought I would be so excited to have a flat surface to walk on. 😄
DeleteAlan realised that the rubble mountain would be too much for him, and paid a couple of the labourers to shift it to the front. At last he's seeing some sense. 😄
A salmon sammie - now there's an idea!
ReplyDeleteIt always seems an extravagance, but it's worth it every now and then. 😀
DeleteWow. I'm excited to see how it all comes together.
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely coming together, and the window fitter came to measure up for the new windows yesterday. Woo hoo, floors AND soon windows !!
DeleteUnderfloor heating is bliss, we've stayed in places that have it.
ReplyDeleteAnd you are right, sunshine and warmer weather make such a difference
It also means that none of our limited wall space needs to be taken up by radiators. 😀
DeleteOh I think Alan definitely deserves a bag…or two of special crisps Sue🤣 June
ReplyDeleteHe does, I'll share. 😁
DeleteUnderfloor heating is lovely ☺️
ReplyDeleteThe crisps sound great, I’d struggle to give crisps up 😂
Alison in Devon x
They are lovely crisps too, lightly coloured which I love.
DeleteYour salmon sandwich looks great! And it's nice to see the video of the bungalow and the progress that's been made.
ReplyDeleteDoing the two weekly walk-throughs really highlights the changes doesn't it. 🙂
DeleteI too have bought boxes of a favourite crisp on line, but it was fatal we ate them all in no time. no good for a losing weight diet!
ReplyDeleteI'm quite good when I have lots of something, but once I get down to the last few of something I have an urge to to finish them off and clear the decks. So, I'm safe for a while. 😄
DeleteWhen my dog drinks, he walks off and leaves a trail of water spots for about 2 rooms.
ReplyDeleteHaha, my Pug used to do that, gosh she was a messy drinker. 😄
