Corniced

The cornicing has been done. I take my hat off to people who can cornice! They are very smart! When we renovated it took us a very long time to get our head around cornicing!  We managed thanks to some clever people who made youtube clips on how to cut it on the right angles.  Anyway, it's looking very good!



This pic is for Nathan - to show him that the guys doing the plastering must have been running on the walls.
One of the things Nathan wants to be able to do when he grows up is to be able to run on walls.

More Plaster


We went up to the house again today so that Mark could see the house plastered. The bricks have all been cleaned now and it looks really neat.

Plastered

We went past the house tonight for  a quick look. The plasterers were just cleaning up after their day's work. It looks great. They've done a great job (not that I'd know much about it - but it looks quite neat)

Plaster

We went to the house tonight to see how they were going with the plastering. The plaster was delivered yesterday (we assume) and it was meant to be started today. Huge big amount of plaster!!!! Insulation is in all of the external walls and in bags up in the roof . Hopefully they'll get started on putting up the plaster tomorrow.










Our apricot tree is having the best season it's ever had. We decided to pick some of the apricots tonight as the birds were starting to eat them. This isn't even one quarter of what is on the tree! They're not quite ripe yet, but hopefully they will be by the weekend and we can get busy making apricot jam. 

Will definitely plant apricot trees in our new garden, but will have to patiently wait for a few years till we get another crop like this one!
