day of the diy

i dont know when i happened but i am turnign into one of those middle aged people who potter round b and q. in fact today (this is shameful) i went 3 times!
once for varnish
once because i forgot the new handles for my writing buero
and one because the sodding handles were the wrong size and the varnish ran out.

damn.

so the result of this was that i managed to get the handles to fit. they and spanking lovely silver round ones- yummy. i also painted the white bench for the garden, and upholstered the seat in the blue cheque, and i managed to guilt david into varnishing the outside furniture, which had gone all peely and sad from being in the rain.

so lots done today, and tomorrow back to packing my books. what a life!
