Gates

After the epic yesterday, today's update will be much shorter.

Looking at the frame and gate

The gate gets fitted in the other gap

The men were back in and first of all had a look at the gate they fitted in yesterday. After some conversation we decided that as this gate was a bit flimsy we would put it over on the other side of the enclosure to where it wouldn't get that much use and so they detached it from the little spot welds they'd used to hold it in place and went and fixed it over the other side.

Fish tank all set up

Angela went shopping after dropping Rosie at school but first she collected the new fish tank from the courier; I put the stand together very quickly while she was out and then when she got back she transferred the existing fish, put the new ones she'd bought, and got it all set up. It looks lovely and is now situated next to our dining table. This gives Rosie a little more room in her playroom, and also means we can all enjoy the fish.

The new gate and frame is fitted

Bekir and Halil headed back to the steel shop to buy some different profile and when they got back they made a new frame and new gate and it is hugely better. They then got it into the gap and fixed in place and now they are ready to put the little bit extra cement that they need to fill a gap at the bottom and then attach the chicken wire to fill the gate out. It's good to have progress again. Additionally Lyuben came past again to look at the car port and workshop area that we may do next and is going to do some drawings and plans for this.

So there it is. Thanks for reading; back tomorrow.
