Another shot from my favourite walk. No walk today as it has rained all day.
3 good things from our 'after the fire' project
1) The decorator started redecorating the living room, with some new paint colours
2) We have chosen the colour for our new carpet, still grey but a different shade.
3) Curtains measured, material chosen, so will order tomorrow.
and an extra one 4) Our daughter came round with 15 month old Monty. He's such a delight and so content.
A lovely capture of the swans , bathing in the Autumn sun - wet day here too today . So you are busy putting the house in order - I have so much to do , but I do not feel happy in having workmen in the house !
@beryl We sat in the conservatory while our lady decorator worked away in the front room. We had limited contact but we did keep her supplied with tea and coffee.
Lovely tranquil scene Judith...your house sounds as though it’s going to be completely revamped! Out granddaughters house burnt down last November & they have just moved into a completely rebuilt house. It’s fantastic & modern whereas the old house needed lots doing! A bonus even though it’s been stressful fit them & they only had the clothes they stood up in. An electrical fault ., her husband is a volunteer fireman & his buzzer went off & looked at it & thought..oh no our house!
@happypat Oh that sounds terrible, what a shock it must have been. I wonder if the new house is on the site of the old one? What a terrible time they must have had, but in a way exciting choosing all their new furnishings etc.
@busylady Yes it is & they just got nicely in last month before first baby arrives next month. They soon put new houses up in NZ.....more or less timber framed.
Lovely peaceful capture.
Hope you get a visit in, it’s well worth it for the mooch around the shops leading to the 199steps and of course the abbey! Sandsend is just along the road a mile or two, also worth a visit.
