Moved a piano (great purchase by Charlotte, looks really good, bit out of tune but will be fine)
Had our eyes tested at Specsavers (all fine)
Painted a wall and two fireplaces
Made a pair of curtains
Adjusted two doors after the summer painting
Fitted two curtain rails
Fitted a door to their en-suite bathroom (never had one - strange ....)
Took down two fences and took them to recycling in the trailer
Built two new fences and fitted a new side gate
Took up some paving and laid gravel
Cut down huge amounts of overhanging branches from the garden, pruned an apple tree and took two trailer loads to recycling
Cleaned all their windows
Fitted a new washing machine
Unpacked and assembled a new oak table, two sofas, two dressers, six chairs and a chest (another trailer full of cardboard to recycling)
Had a hair cut (Barbara)
Watched Adam play hockey in Havant (lost 2-4 but he played well)
And, we all went to see the English National Ballet's production of Romeo and Juliet at the Mayflower on Thursday night - Barbara organised it as a surprise for my birthday present!
Back on the overnight ferry to St. Malo and, as we got onto the ferry and out of the car we met our nearest English neighbour, Sue, on her way back from Devon.
It was a lovely day when we got back here, sunny and warm - 21 degrees this afternoon - and there was a great sunset again:
