Windowsill Progress

Today I found out why it had taken the men a day or so longer than I expected to do this job; basically when they went to remove the insulation from the top of the windowsills out side of Room 13, two by the Games Room and Angela's Art Room they found that there actually wasn't any windowsill there at all! So they have found extra work that needed to be done. Ah well.

Working away on the windows

On the way back from dropping Rosie to school today the farm puppies were out and they came to say hello; this patchwork one is particularly friendly but he's also a boy so would not mix well with our three girls as we don't want continually puppies. Ah well. The men were in when I got back and spent the day working their way along the rest of this task. First of all they had to pour the cement on the final windowsill outside Room 13 and after that they went and picked up some more mesh before getting started on the plastering. Halil also pulled the pool trolley out and sealed it with a couple of coats of bezir however we have now run out of bezir so will need to buy some more tomorrow. It was a good day of progress and also Halil's friend (family member, I think) came over to look at Julian and he will be going next week I think. We also spoke quite a bit about the car port and I've had the crazy/expensive idea of putting an electric roller shutter on the front, and sealing the sides as well with a thin green temporary mesh, to keep birds and other creatures out. We should get a quote for that soon.

The end result

We had great fun watching the cycling during dinner and after that Angela has sat down with Rosie to cut her hair. It is getting very long and starting to dry out a bit at the tips so she has just given it a couple of inches trim. Awesome.

So there it is; thanks for reading and see you tomorrow.
