I was out this morning meeting up with my friend Jeanette for a catch up over a coffee in Sainsbury's just up the road, while Ian went on his own catch up.
He then collected me just after a torrential downpour to go to the cinema. We made use of our Meerkat movie offer and got our 2 for 1 to see Air - the story about how Nike got Michael Jordan to sign with them. Matt Damon in lead with Ben Affleck (no, neither were in the Michael Jordan role. MJ didn't really feature in it very much). A good film.
Back home Ian and I decided that we'd just get on with our final big DIY job - laminating the lounge/dining room floor. So we cleared most of the furniture into the hallway, kitchen and downstairs loo, with the rest moved to one side. Then we cut about a third of the total carpet into a long strip and work started with the carpet grippers being removed, followed by some serious hoovering. At which point Ian changed into old clothes - before his decent stuff ended up dirty 😅.
Freddie returned from work just as the multi tool came out to shape and cut the laminate in the doorway and along the walls - walls are never straight!
Amy and I ended up relegated to the kitchen where we sorted out dinner. After a dinner break for the workers, and we'd cleared and washed up, we made ourselves cosy on the dining chairs in the kitchen until they called it a night.
Work is continuing tomorrow 😄.
