A productive and somewhat frustrating day today. I have been trying to sort out utilities and bills. What is it with companies - you explain what you are trying to do and they are unable to offer any flexibility at all. It's like a computer says no moment! There was one exception where a utility company don't want any money because they don't know what our usage will be - what a refreshing change!


We bought an industrial mop and industrial floor cleaner and set about the wedding room today. The floor came up quite well. This is the original flooring and we didn't know if it would be recoverable. It isn't immaculate, but I think it was worth saving. It was an absolute delight to use a mop that was big enough for me. The last one we had was far too short and I nearly broke my back trying to mop the production area!!!

Having added the red yesterday, Kev suggested adding red to the corners so we added that and extra to the archway as well. We also have some fairy lights to decorate the archway with once the main area has been painted.

Kev set about the floor in the retail area getting this space ready to paint. Everything has been shifted across to the display area. Several items have been sent to the mart with more in Scot Ads and Ebay over the next couple of weeks - it's nearly rent day!!!!
