More great progress

Today has been more good progress on multiple projects and tasks so let's get to it without delay.

Smoothing off the sides

Straight edge to check it's flush

Replastering around the holes

Filling the gap in the top

Plastering it all now

First thing the men headed to the shop to get some more plaster and when they arrived they got stuck in with the holes for the railway. First of all they tidied up and smoothed out what they'd done yesterday and checked that everyone was square and then Bekir started replacing the plaster that had fallen off in the Games Room while Halil cut and fitted some offcuts of the blocks we had bought for the roof. These are really light and perfect for filling the large gaps above each hole that we have cut. Bekir was by this time in and plastering inside each hole.

Two deer in the back field

New base for Rosie's Railway

Awesome Lord of the Rings bauble

Today we saw some deer on the field out the back. Xena and Dutch were up on the back bank together having fun and then they started barking and Xena ran across so Angela went to look and pointed out the two deer. How awesome is that. Another thing achieved today, once the men had got a break point doing their plastering, was to lift Rosie's Model Railway across onto the new wheeled base. I then hoovered up and pushed it into place. Later on there was more Christmas Decorations but I'm only going to share this picture of a special bauble Angela got me last year.

There it is, this room is now finished

Bekir fits supports for a new shelf

The next task for the men was putting up a TV in the gym so when Angela is doing her long walks on the walking machine she can put some YouTube on or a podcast. It didn't take long then there was a little cleaning up for the holes in the wall before Bekir went into the roof and fitted the final length of skirting board over by the doors and windows. The last job of the day for them was putting a new shelf up for Angela in her art room. This was not quite completed today but it's close.

The gym is now really nicely laid out

What a stunning moon rise

After school there was lots of Christmas decorating with Angela and Rosie while I was in the gym putting down more tiles and then, with Halil's help, shifting the machines to be in a better arrangement. All I need to do now is fit the end of the internet to a connection box and then the TV will be in service. After dinner Angela called Rosie and I out to watch the moonrise and it was stunning over the hills. A beautiful sight that the picture does not do justice.

So there it is. A good day all round. Thanks for watching and back tomorrow.
