I have just realised that it has been a week since I last posted which I think is probably the longest interval since I started the blog back in early January, leading me to wonder how much longer the blog will serve any useful purpose!<\/p>\n
However, it has been a busy week with lots of visitors at the weekend helping us celebrate Felicity’s birthday (yesterday). Both sets of parents were here, plus various cousins etc, so we were glad the weather held up for a couple of BBQs! Not so on Monday when we had very heavy rain, but then the garden needed it! Yesterday and today are somewhat drier!<\/p>\n
The conservatory tiling is being completed this week, not without little dramas on the way! You may recall that I am putting in underfloor heating and I ordered the matting some weeks ago. However, I ordered it by the total area, forgetting that it arrives in a 500mm width, and as the conservatory dimensions are not multiples of 500mm, I ended up with too much! It can’t be cut, so I had to order a shorter length. Anyone who needs 4 square meteres of underfloor heating mat Screwfix part number 34893<\/a>, please let me know! (I have a spare thermostat too). The tiler then discovered we needed some additional self levelling compound, and I have just been to get some more tile cement and another box of tiles! It should grouted and finished tomorrow, although I won’t be here for that!<\/p>\n And the reason that I won’t be here is that it is three weeks since I last saw the lovely Linny, and it is time for another check up! The next PET scan (number 15!) has been ordered, and although I haven’t had the appointment yet I expect it to be in about 4 weeks’ time. I will post the results from tomorrow (the blood tests) when I get back.<\/p>\n Please don’t forget to look at Elspeth’s and John’s blogs. Elspeth has just started her treatment and John has some challenging developments that he describes in his latest posts! John – fingers crossed – Onwards and Upwards!<\/p>\n Now I have a bit of plumbing to do, before I go and tend the crops!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have just realised that it has been a week since I last posted which I think is probably the longest interval since I started the blog back in early January, leading me to wonder how much longer the blog will serve any useful purpose!
