Sunday 5th April (I know!) – Week 10
Well my wish for the weather to improve at the end of last week’s blog has come good and this Easter weekend has been bathed in wonderful sunshine. Apologies (again!!) for not posting this yesterday as I usually do on a Sunday but, as it was Easter and today is a public holiday, it’s sort…
Sunday 29th March – Week 9
Sunday 29th March – Week 9 So, as suspected in last week’s blog this week has principally been about painting – lots of painting. Dave has continued to focus on his gym completing the ceiling in white and wall panelling in a dark grey. It looks fabulous but he won’t allow me to post a…
Sunday 22 March 2015 – Week 8
Sunday again – the weeks seem to pass incredibly quickly and this week, despite working hard every day, is the first I look back on and think we haven’t achieved much – mostly because we have worked on the same things we had started before. We completed the first coat of paint in all rooms…
Sunday 15th March 2015 – Week 7
Firstly, apologies for not posting my blog last week and to the, literally, ones of my readers who seemed to miss it. I’m glad there is someone who looks forward to hearing about the goings on at Kergudon 🙂 The reason I didn’t blog is not, as the more cynical of you may believe,…
Sunday 01 March – Week 5
Sunday 01 March – Week 5 Happy March! So it is now officially spring – on the meteorological calendar anyway – and we are having some very spring like weather here with a mixture of clear sunny days and warm wet ones. Progress continues much as it did last week (are we getting into a…
Sunday 22nd February 2015 – Week 4
Spring may not be far off in St. Cadou. This week we have enjoyed a number of wonderfully bright days as well as significant showers and a couple of extended wet spells! Most obviously it is evident that the birds, of which there are significant numbers at Kergudon, appear to have started their mating rituals…
Sunday 15th February – Week 3 (sort of!)
So we have returned from our brief holiday where we had a fantastic time skiing in Canada (thank you very much for asking!) Very many thanks have to go to Melissa and Tom, one of Dave’s London PT clients, for their generosity on our holiday, and the real work starts at Kergudon. This week we…
Sunday 25th January 2015 – Week 2
We have reached the end of the second week and are about to leave our new home for a brief holiday. Obviously not because we’ve earned it with the work we have put in (yet!) but because it may be the last time we can afford to take a holiday for a number of years ……
Sunday 18th January 2015 – Week 1
Sunday 18th January 2015 – Week 1 Can’t believe that another week has passed although it probably won’t come as any surprise that we haven’t managed to empty ALL of the boxes! However, we have completed our own bedroom – other than the minor issues of curtains and a new paint job! We now have…
