House Progress August

So, we are so close to moving in. It may look in a bit of a state but it's actually about 8 man days away from completion. However, having the men is a bit trickier as our painter and flooring guys are quite busy and Darren, our PM, threw his back out this past weekend. So, we are very close and somewhat far. This video illustrates a few subtleties: Firstly, our new car, the Passat. We bought this beast from Gavin. We love it as we can move sofas with it, one thing our former Polo couldn't manage (actually the Polo couldn't even manage to run). Anyway. Another point that could have been missed is the apple tree hovering over the car. I am eating some homemade apple sauce as I type this blog now. My work colleagues and husband will benefit from an apple crumble soon. Now, the traffic. Yes, we are next to a small yet busy road but I look at it like this: It's the UK. It's overcast and chilly most of the year, how many hours are we going to spend out in the garden compared to inside within the double glazed windows and surround sound stereo system? Exactly.
