Now for the gardens

After some reasonably unsuccessful Buddy proofing on the last efforts, I have taken matters more seriously. 

And to protect the remainder of my vege garden. 

The gardens that were. Thanks Kate

It was lovely to see Kate for the weekend. 

Didn't manage to get her into a sander but we did do a little gardening. 

A trip from the warehouse with a trolley. 

Buddy proofing

And after one little day... 

Substantially painted..!

Some great efforts over the last 2 days. Thanks to Jodie and a long weekend. House is looking quite lovely if I must say so myself. 

Coming along nicely

Just a bunch of photos really. But slowly getting there, lots to do though so glad some family is coming down later this month. Thanks Dave and Kate. 

Panelling completed in master bedroom. 

Panelling to hallway complete. Pretty proud of my carpentry efforts on this one. 

New log burner.?!?

A photo of Jodie not working for once. 

Pretty stuff. 

And now Jodie's efforts for the day, after a good surf this morning.!

Kitchen photos

Oops.

Thank you Dave and Dad..!

A huge thanks to Dave and Dad for the long couple of days in Christchurch in the cold, damp, not square old house.
One thing lead to another and we ended up replacing the kitchen window as well. It looks fantastic and I am very happy.
Thanks to Jodie for keeping the coffees and pies close at hand.
Thanks Mum for the hundred phone calls organising the kitchen, it is amazing and I love it. Perfect.
Would not have done this much in 3 months and would never look this good without Dad and Dave. Safe trip home.!
Sorry Dad. Had to change the window in toilet.
