Well there is promising signs of activity going on today! dh has at last started knocking out the brickwork in our lounge in preparation for a grand makeover! Very overdue, our house is a shambles and it will be fantastic to have a nice room with a new carpet and furniture!!
My brother came round and got roped into chipping some of the trickier bricks but hopped it quick when I mentioned stripping the paper!!

The family have all gone out tonight to watch the first England match - vs USA at the tennis club so its peace and quiet for me and a chance to catch up on some KNITTING!

Yes! I promise I am still knitting. I need to take pics and prove it!!
