Another day of progress

Today's update is going to be much shorter, which is good. I want away from my computer for an evening.

So the progress today was almost all about the walls by the stairs. Today they began applying the second smooth coat of mortar, and it's starting to look really good. At lunch time I managed to get one extra hook in for our pans; I was hoping for three however this didn't work out as the chuck on the drill was slipping way too much. More progress was achieved on the walls before Halil spotted that the air-conditioning unit outside Rosie's playroom was very loose and close to falling off the wall. It didn't take long to tighten up the bolts and they also moved the whole unit in on its tracks so the moment is less and it shouldn't pull away from the wall again. There's still a fair amount to do on these walls but progress is good.

So there it is; a good day. Back tomorrow and thanks for reading.
