\"bed<\/a>… where I’ll be sleeping tonight!<\/p>\n

We now have acquired a mattress (which cost more than everything else in the bedroom combined), a new sheet, new pillows, new quilt, new mattress cover, new sheet and new pillowcases. And I shall be in there in a very short space of time.<\/p>\n

I’ve even had a shower (5 litres of hot water at 69\u00b0C out of the home-made immersion heater that I use as a dump load for the excess solar energy and poured into the solar shower at 32\u00b0C and the result was gorgeous) and a shave too. I’ll be nice and clean in there.<\/p>\n

And no alarm either. I’ll be sleeping in there until I awake and I don’t care if it’s not until lunchtime either.

Many thanks to Terry who helped me bring the mattress into the bedroom. It had to come in through the window and that was something to which I was not looking forward. But with Terry, we had done it in 2 minutes, and then spent two hours chatting and drinking coffee.<\/p>\n

And that reminds me – talking of coffee – I had the percolator running again – and twice too. Once for me at lunchtime and once when Terry came round. The weather was such that I could certainly spare the electricity.<\/p>\n

This morning, I had another go with the weedkiller and then I used the wood treatment to cover the stud wall that I had built the other day. At least – I’ve not built the wall but everything is cut and shaped, and it was the pieces that I covered in wood treatment.<\/p>\n

So I’m off to bed in a minute, and tomorrow I’ll let you know how the bed is.<\/p>\n
