The House Renovators: September 2006
http://houserenovator.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 11, 2006. Nearly a house again. I Hate Painting. We have proper plastered and painted walls (and ceilings! My back is killing me! It took us seven attempts to get the colour for the chimney wall- we ended up using Farrow and Balls French Gray, which is as you can see a very green grey- classy! The rest of the walls we have painted white, nice and clean, it might change one day but for now its a blank canvas. Posted by Jon @ 7:56 AM. Sunday, September 03, 2006. We are soooo close. th...

The House Renovators: December 2006
http://houserenovator.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 11, 2006. Well, things have slowed down considerably now we have moved in! Complacency is a horrible thing and now with Christmas looming we have to pull our fingers out and get a couple of things done! We have the flooring people booked for the 19th to lay ready for it, oak boards in the kitchen, back lobby and bathroom. We thought that as we only needed 9 square meters we could splash out a little! The fire is in place and within the next week we will be able to light it!

The House Renovators: June 2006
http://houserenovator.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 28, 2006. It's all a bit much at the moment, things aren't happening fast enough for me and things keep on happening to add to my frustration, let me tell you of a few. I have paid the 227.00 that is required for the National grid to connect the gas but they inform me that they have 21 days to let me know when they will be coming to lay the pipe! That is it- I have to dig the trench they are just connecting the pipe! And even then it could be up to 7 weeks wait! We have a really nice house.

Monday, December 19, 2005. I'm sorry to the two or three of you who check my blog now and again for the lack of posts recently - I'll try and get a few in more regularly! Saturday night Jo and I went to see the new Narnia movie LW&W (doesn't work as well as LOTR.). A fantastic film - I was impressed with the CGI and the general story telling, I also thought the young actors did a fairly good job, nowhere near as wooden as the Harry potter lot! Well this year I have bought myself (and I suppose Jo) the DVD.

Thursday, August 24, 2006. So here are the shots of the trench being dug and the gas dudes fitting our supply! I was upstairs painting the bedroom and all of a sudden this massive truck pulls up, collects the dirt and the boys had layed the tarmac! I got a thumbs up "all done mate" and they were gone! It only took them a couple of hours! I kept smelling gas and then remembering they were out there! Great I'll take my time! The boiler looks good, really neat, just nead to work out how to use it! As for th...

The House Renovators: November 2006
http://houserenovator.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 25, 2006. The Return of the Mac. It has been ages since I have posted, sorry for that. Let me give you an update on what has been happening at 2 the Terrace. (is it bad that I giggle inside whenever I say my address? Hehe) We have bought the log burner, it wasn't cheap but it makes the room look awesome and will hopefully allow us to not need the heating on! They should help keep the room nice and cosy as the sash windowws have a habbit of allowing the draft in/heat out! Felsted, Essex...

Saturday, April 22, 2006. It's ok I am Alive. Wow, a whole month and a bit without posting. That has to be one of the longest breakdowns in Blogging in this little fraternity of blogs. Another way of describing the event would be " a month stuck in butlins with thousands of Christians with most of the bars shut! So permit me if you will, while I sit here eating my Easter egg to tell you briefly about my time away. Then the event started. I really enjoyed this week, i was back home. Need I say any mor...

Friday, September 30, 2005. Last night I got home late from work - just in time to watch spooks. As soon as spooks finished I went to bed for a well earned early night. During the night I had a vivid dream which involved some friends of mine. So picture the scene - I am one of mi5's top agents, I have recently infiltrated a drugs smuggling gang under the alias of "Richard" a high flying businessman making his riches from supporting the drugs industry into England. The gang member made a sharp exit. The a...
