This morning we went to B&Q to pay for our new bathroom!! It’s officially begun as we even left with a stack of tiles! The proper work won’t begin until October but it’s still so very exciting as it’s the last bit of the house that really needs some TLC. Apart from that I wasContinue reading “26/07/21 – Bathroom progress!”

The temperature has finally dropped a bit in London. This morning’s run was much more pleasant as a result. Then at lunch Nic and I went on a lovely walk around the park, still in just t-shirts but not panting away from the heat! Storms are coming tomorrow… Hopefully they’ll be a bit impressive!

It’s hot today in London! Our best decision last year was finally getting a fan for the bedroom. It’s nights like this that I just can’t imagine sleeping without it as it’s nearly midnight and still 20 degrees!

We had our windows finally cleaned today! All the better to see this gorgeous view with! It sounds like dull news but it’s actually made me super happy to see our house all shiny and clean.

So fingers crossed I’m a good present buyer… I’m in bed earlyish tonight as tomorrow I’m going into theContinue reading “12/07/21 – Book 31!”

Today was super rainy so we headed to a shopping outlet to get some long overdue shopping done. We didn’t end up finding too much but we did get four pairs of Vans between us, so I’d count that as a success! And we had a lovely lunch with Nic’s mum and dad to topContinue reading “20/06/21 – Shooooes!”

Lots and lots more rain today. To the point we noticed our gutters filling up… We tried to have a go ourselves but I definitely think we need to get professionals in. We sheltered in the dry today, so not much else happened!

Goodbye old dishwasher! Helloooo shiny new dishwasher! That’s right, that was my massive highlight of today’s day. After a year of manually washing dishes (cough, Nic washing dishes) we’ve finally got a new dishwasher and I’m very happy! Apart from that today is just rained and rained and rained and rained. It was like aContinue reading “17/06/21 – Out with the old”

Another day working but with holiday fun sandwiched around it! This evening we went for a walk to dinner in Hastings during sunset, it was a dream.
