… finish the stair tread that I started last night, I’ve fitted a couple of risers and fitted the battens for a third one.<\/p>\n
First job, though, was to re-route a couple more electrical cables and the telephone cable that were in the way, and that wasn’t a job of five minutes either. They were one of the first cables that I fitted and so, as you would expect, in the following 4 years all kinds of cables have been threaded in over the top of them.<\/p>\n
But with the new treads, and the risers in at the top two stairs now, they are about 100 times stiffer than they were before when I just had scrap off-cuts of wood as treads, and no risers at all. It’s all looking quite good and I can’t wait to restart work on Monday, and I bet it’s been a good few years since I said anything like that.<\/p>\n
But I shan’t be doing too much on Monday as someone is coming to view C\u00e9cile’s house in the late afternoon. And on Tuesday I’m taking a pile of stuff to Montlucon for the sale room there (nothing of mine, of course. I don’t have anything worth selling) so it’s going to be something of a short week.<\/p>\n
