The bookcase situation started off very stressful indeed. The corner of the wall where the fourth one was supposed to fit in, was not at a 45 degree angle. Alex had to cut a section of the skirting out and sliver off the bottom trims on both sides of the bookcase – eventually it squeezed in! Alex did an excellent job and to be honest you wouldn't even know what had been done! Its fantastic to see them all in place. I have no mental energy left to fight with trying to put cupboard doors and hinges on, so Alex is coming back again tomorrow night to put these on for me.

I spent the rest of the day working extremely hard unpacking everything and I can't quite believe it, but I have unpacked ALL my boxes !!! 🎉 🥳 😲 It was exciting finding things I have not seen for years and also mother and father's trinkets and heirlooms. I have left two shelves clear, one for a record player and the other for a small TV – if I can sort out getting a signal to this room.

Tip run before work in the morning and then a second run on Tuesday morning. Good night! 😴
