So, there’s a few quick things to say on the update front. Oh, before I do, thank you all for your lovely comments… I shall continue updating on the house then :)
Anyhow, this is the garage at the moment:
Irritatingly, it’s 90 tiles short of completion. I’m thinking of going down to Rose Green to get them, as the difference in price between Rose Green and The Glens (with their slow delivery, 20 broken tiles, blaming me for it not arriving on time because my payment – sent less than an hour by instant transfer from ordering – was ‘too slow to allow us to ship it on that day) is pretty small. Indeed, if they’ll price match, then it’ll be fine. However, given that Rose Green managed to slip 3 faulty tiles into the batch of 50, I’ll be looking a bit more carefully :(
The plasterer’s due tomorrow and so we’ve been frantically clearing the upstairs.

Unfortunately, this:
Has put a bit of a crimp in my plan, so I’m going to have to pop out to B&Q and pick up a replacement.
