Slow down - Speed up

The last couple of days have been slow for me but incredibly quick for the workmen. I went to Clermont yesterday morning to buy some different wallpaper for Suite 1. I got some but I am not happy with it and having shown it to a few people (Emily’s parents) I have decided to stick with the red paper that I showed you in an earlier post. This seems to be a popular decision with a number of people that I have spoken to since.
The afternoon disappeared because Emily’s parent returned from their European tour with their Aussie cousins and so I showed them around the place and we chatted about their adventure. So it was a bit of a slow day for me and I felt like I hadn’t achieved much.
Today has been a bit better but not much. I woke with a start when Em’s Parents came back at 7.30 having dropped the Aussies of at the airport at some ungodly hour. I have started to receive forwarded mail from England now so I don't feel so unpopular anymore - it was half full of junk mail! I also received my Broadband pack from Wanadoo which I connected up straight away but sadly the line hasn't been upgraded yet so I still have a while to wait before I return to cyber civilisation. I had to answer lots of questions throughout the day as the plumbers started to position the actual bathroom furniture into Suite 2 and 5. I can’t believe how quickly these 2 rooms have come together. So I thought now was a good time to take some photos to show progress:
This is suite 2 bedroom when we moved in last October
This is Suite 2 bedroom now which the plumbers have converted into their workshop – tidy aren’t they!!? In the corner you can see the new bath that they put into position today. This is Suite 2 shower room which has taken shape in the last 48hours. This is Suite 5 Bathroom which is probably going to be the nicest bathroom as it feels modern and spacious. There is no point showing you a before photo because the room didn’t exist before! This is Suite 3 Bathroom when we moved in last October This is Suite 3 Bathroom now. The tiles are up (no grout yet) and the rest of the place has been prepped for decorating.
This is Suite 4 Bathroom now – totally stripped and nothing else done yet. These are our new 200 litre tanks – one for each bathroom. We won’t be running out of hot water that’s for sure! This evening I moved into the Napoleon wing. I cleared out the first floor room, heated it with the space heaters and have made it reasonably cosy. Looking forward to bed now!
