The carpet was laid in the dining room yesterday. My new lights for corridor, kitchen and hall were put in today by my electrician – big clear up afterwards, all looking fabulous. My builder was coming out this morning to link the bookcases together in the dining room and install insulation boards, but has rescheduled for tomorrow. Had a lovely catch up on the phone with Malcolm W. (Heacham, Norfolk). Popped into Lerwick to go to the dump and messed up, forgot how early it closes on a Saturday. Went into Heima to look at sofas. Got fish n chips and then went to Burn of Njugalswater which is SW of Bridge of Fitch to see if I could find any migrants on the way home, nothing found.
Its been very difficult over the last few weeks as have not been birding for ages, but if I hadn't have focussed on getting my house done so its all unpacked, then it would have never have got done. I have pushed myself beyond to achieve what I have and obviously I'm at work too. I now have two lots of nests of tables to put together and my new dining room table – all flat pack AGAIN! My first birding holiday commences on Friday 19th September for a week and then I have the first two weeks of October and an odd two days at the end of October. By 19th September, everything in my house will be unpacked! I will then just be waiting on delivey of sofa, armchairs and a sofa bed, which I have not chosen and ordered yet! With the usual 8 week wait, I should get it all by Christmas! 😂 Any Norfolk birders visiting my house in Autumn, will have to sit in the dining room for their tea and cake!
