St Edith
Yesterday's weather: Gorgeous again!
Since I've been banging on for weeks, nay months, about the blasted chalet I thought you might like to see the finished article.
7 weeks to deliver, plus another two and a half weeks for the floor to arrive. Three days to erect. A couple of days to tidy the outside, build the steps and paint it. Finally we have our little garden room. Actually it is quite a big garden room. At present in there we have a double bed, chest of drawers, side table, bedside table and there is still room to swing a cat (no I haven't tried it - yet).
What it doesn't have yet is a name. It may be called Les Pommiers as it sits between two apple trees but it will probably change with the wind.
So the last week has been quite a week. Chalet built, windows installed, seven stitches in my foot. I'm looking forward to a quiet week this week. Whatever will I find to blog about each day? Especially as I can't get out until the stitches are out. Ah, well, I'm sure the muse will attack me each morning. You'll just have to come back to see!

That looks exactly like the one I have coming from Castorama. They hope to deliver it at the end of October. It was ordered in the middle of August. :-(
Probably is. Castorama promised delivery of that one within 3 weeks and it took 7 or more (I gave up counting in the end). Still IKEA are even better. Kitchen units and bookcases ordered in June - will be delivered in October (maybe)!
The joys of living in France, remote area and not a big enough car to fetch anything in ;-)
We'll never get all our bits and pieces in there mum :(
