Two recent visits


We spent a few days indulging in Extreme Housekeeping at Runival earlier this week, and visited the Wood on the way there and on the way back, which was on a weekday, so we saw chaps working. The harling and the wood cladding are now done; and the harling has been painted on the south side, where the brise soleil was being bolted together the second time we were there. The water was turned on - gushes and gushes of it. I find it hard not to think that this is simply emptying the pool down below, though I know this is not how aquifers work.

Ronnie the Stair God was there making stairs; chaps were painting the walls.

We are now waiting to see if the mahogany will be enough for the shower seat; and we also wonder if the kitchen lighting is quite right. But Mary is on holiday, so we will have to wait to discover both those things.

What's wrong with the lighting then?

From one of the kitchen plans it looks as if there's to be a box on the ceiling above the East working surface with lights in.

Mahogany shower seat, eh? I can't wait to see this classy joint :)
