Jobs done and a sunny weekend



We had a busy weekend., but we have had sunshine all weekend. Such a nice change.

We found out why the carpet was looking so grubby. The oil heater that was sitting on it has been leaking. We found the little puddle of oil when we moved it one morning. Just as well we have a new heating system coming along.

We got the quote for the roman blinds, which was a bit more than we thought it might be, so we are going to have to think about it again.

I had the beginnings of a migraine on Friday. The vision in my left eye went fuzzy and it was hard to focus, so I left work early. I had it once before, about 2 years ago. I went to bed and slept for 2 1/2
hours. I have felt really tired all week, but I don't know if that had anything to do with it. I was feeling more like myself on Saturday morning.

Eddie had 3 jobs to do over the weekend. Put the roof racks on to the dodge; put in the diesel heater and connect the califont. All the jobs waiting for a sunny weekend. Well the roof racks weren't quite right, so he had to muck about with them for quite a while. The califont leaked and it came back from the repair place with out one of it's connections. The diesel heater kept blowing the fuse. The heater will have to wait for the auto electrician as it was beyond Eddie's expertise, but we do have continuous hot water and roof racks on the dodge. 2 out of 3 aint bad.

The starlings are still trying to nest in the goose neck. A couple of weeks ago, I found 2 dead chicks under the goose neck and at the weekend Eddie pulled the nest out and found some eggs, which broke and they were well past their use by date. We have also had blackbirds in the vent for the air con. I think we have been standing still for too long. We think we took the starlings for a ride when we did the COF ha ha.
