Slowly but surely with Stores

Wednesday 16th August

Stores

Despite the intense desire to procrastinate with regards to painting of Stores (it's only the top half after all!), Steven and I teamed up and painted the ceiling and the top half of the walls where the cupboards had been.  The bottom section will be hidden so we're saving paint and not completing that ;) 

 

It will need another coat which should be fairly quick as the painful part is done.  If you've never painted breeze blocks before, it is a royal pain in the @$$ due to the unevenness of it and the holes in the block. 

Today, Thursday, we will do the last coat and then I think Steven is able to start building the frame for the sink and shelves/workbench.

After painting, we went to check the wasp situation and thankfully, after getting rid of the last few with a fire in the bin, it seems the problem is resolved so I am looking forward to getting out there and harvesting some potatoes as it is looking like blight may be hitting.  To be honest, I'm amazed we've missed it so far with the crazy weather we've had.
