More Light

Patrick and Mikel arrived this morning even though it was drizzling. They did a little bit of tidying up where the pipes pass through the barn and then it was inside work. They began to fit the Velux windows in the second roof and they finished the first two just before the afternoon's storm arrived!

Meanwhile we were on inside jobs as well! I finished the preparation work in the bedroom so that Sue can paint. That is, once she's experimented with paint mixes to achieve the required colour. However the test 'patches' on the walls look promising. She then started painting in the boiler room. We are still awaiting the tanks for the heating oil, so we'd like to paint the walls and ceiling whilst it's still easy to get to them.

I spent the afternoon organising and cleaning my tiling tools. I've got to buy sacks of 'flexible' tile adhesive for the underfloor heating. It comes in powder form so I'm awaiting a dry day; tomorrow hopefully.
