I’ve started to put the framing on the wall and I’ve attached the first row of insulation to the back wall. That’s the north side of the house so it needs a good cladding. Not for nothing will I be installing the wardrobe across that back wall either.
Mind you I think that the weather had something to do with it. For the first time in weeks it was warm in the verandah this morning and when you can eat your breakfast in the warmth and the calm it makes for a good start to the day.
Brilliant sunshine for most of the day too and I ran the heater up here for almost three hours to use up the surplus electricity.
So having lined part of the wall I needed to remove a pile of rubble to get at the rest. That involved fetching a sheet of corrugated iron from the garage and that involved tidying up a bit in there. And once I’d found a space to lay down the sheet it involved fetching bucket loads of rubble downstairs. But I didn’t do too many for the ground where I’m going to put my new raised beds had all dried out already even though the thaw is only about 24 hours on. So I set a big fire and spent the rest of the afternoon weeding.
With it being light until later I was still out working until 18:15 and I was quite enjoying myself.
There’s no doubt that good weather all helps to cheer you up.
In other news, seeing as I have nothing to lose I’ve written a stinking letter to Pentax. I’m thoroughly p155ed off with their after-sales service.
It’s a crying shame Pentax is still crappy. They always were pretty crappy when I was a young wee photographer. I’d have thought they’d have improved. It seems still that they come out with all the innovations then leave them for somebody else to do properly.
While a single letter may not do very much, a lot of people complaining might do something though I fear not very much.
