Saturday

ADSL is working, though Vista says it can't get onto the wifi though it can see it. Deal with that later.

Apart from catching up on email and such, I spent the day moving things around. Also went upstairs for the first time. The stairs are... interesting. On the to-do list is Get Proper Staircase.

The bedroom upstairs is sweet. It's big, but having a sloping roof and window at floor level makes it feel like something out of a Victorian children's book.

The mezzanine will need more work than I realised to make it into a sitting room - for a start, the railing around it is makeshift.

Downstairs it's easy to see where the dining-room was planned, and the heap of materials includes wall thingies and floor tiles. Just need someone to do it.

Using the phone failed, and I don't know why but I'm too sleepy to do any more searching of French websites.
