Its finished!

Hurray! We've finished the bathroom. Now just need to tidy up! A good team - ahead of time; on budget; and as planned. Mel learned some new DIY skills :) Did some plumbing, used the blow torch (without burning anything), as well as tiling. Now she has a bad back! lol! Click below to see album.

Shit - The Weakest Link...

Damn. Its me :( After continuing DIY yesterday skimming a few mm off the bottom of the door, I (like an idiot), kneeling next to it, twisted, and tried to lift it up. Cue sloppy noise; bizzare feelings; an a lot of pain.... After 30m to get indoors, next door brought my tools in, and I spent just under 2 hours unable to move on the floor crying :( Oops. The NHS Direct, and the emergency doctor service were next to ****** useless. No offence, but the advice of Nurafen was as much use as going for a run. On verge of 999 but managed with Mels help to get upstairs and crash for the night. Managed to beat a way into the Doctors this morning, and have a great combo of muscle relaxant and multiple pain killers. Diazepam, Dicloflex, and co-Codamol. Cool! Most of today so far was a nice pain free float/sleep! Really annoying being stuck on the sofa looking at a toliet and sink that needs fitting upstaris. But I think this weekend will be doing nothing (shame there is loads of motorsport on ;) ) - and maybe a beer or two to speed up visit to the clouds. At least drugs and sleeping means I don't have to watch daytime TV! lol!!

DIY Tired

What a weekend. We had Friday off planning a long weekend away, but decided to continue working on the bathroom instead. So out Thursday with some friends for drinks. Then Friday was chore day, Tesco, Focus, Screwfix etc... :) Then out Friday night, starting early Saturday tiling.... Mel having first tiling lessons - she did really well! Then out Saturday night for a big meal.... Starting early Sunday DIYing and managed to finish the tiling and grouting off about 8pm Knackered. Didn't even have time for a run!!! oh no!!! If only we didn't have to work......
