A bath at last !!!

It's been a long time not having a bath, but eventually it's installed and working and the bathroom is decorated (just a bit of snagging to do now, but Bib's got her list !!!)

This is the outside looking in.  The outside is next years project now.

And this is laying in the bath looking out.

And this is the bath.  Bib had the first bath and really, really enjoyed it, she got out looking like a prune (ha ha ha) !!!  But she said it's been months so she's going to enjoy it and didn't care what she looked like.

And this is the rest of the bathroom.

And the detail on top of the sink and loo.  Bib's sooooo happy, she loves it.

And here we are again playing with another of her taps.

Until the next update Ratters ...

Extreme Decorating

It's about time we showed you some pictures of the renovations so far.

The building works have now finished and the snagging is underway, so we've been decorating, but not just throwing some paint at the walls - oh no, it's much more than that !!!

So we said we'd help.

But Bib said we'd have to climb the ladder and it's very, very high !!!

And the ceilings are over 9 feet high !!!

These are original walls, so they were painted, then filled (as you can see from the pictures, it only took a bit of filling !!!), then sanded, then painted, then filled, then sanded, then painted, then filled, then sanded, then painted ..... and repeat again and again.

The walls are still not brilliant, but there is only so much painting, filling and sanding Bib can do on her own, without our help !!!

Once the walls were more or less finished Bib started sanding down doors, so she could start undercoating them.  As you can see, she didn't need our help because Milo was there.

He couldn't get any closer if he tried and wasn't much help, as he fell asleep !!!
But Bib didn't mind.

As you can see from the bottom two pictures, it's not looking too bad now, all that painting and filling and sanding has paid off.  All Bib has to do now is paint all of the gloss work !!!

While Bib was busy and we couldn't help, we decided to have a play on her new tap -
he he he !!!

Back soon Ratters ...
