Well black, white and reds actually. Reality day today and got back into the finishing touches. It was grouting day today and filling in all the little dinks and dents ready for painting. My hands ache like hell as it is slightly different doing wall tiles to floor tiles and I had to work a fair amount in really difficult conditions stretching over the bath. All done now but spent most of the day at it and no lunch either.
Am now finished and cleared up and awaiting it all drying out and I should be able to get the shower in on Saturday ready for use on Sunday - well that's the plan!
It is strange being back home again after such an eventful weekend. I have managed to book a holiday with Mrs. F. and my mum is coming along too. We are going to go to the Northumberland coast, near Berwick-upon-Tweed. It is an area we have always wanted to visit. My mum hasn't been to the sea since A and I took her and dad to Hunstanton some years back. Looking back, dad wasn't great on his feet then and perhaps was already ill?
I have booked a place that is yards from the sea so we can wander out at any time onto the beach. It is unfortunate that we will be bringing mum home the day before dad's birthday and we wont be there for that. I had hoped that we would be away at that time and do something like have a meal but will have to think of something else.
Interestingly mum had a bad day yesterday and yet I don't tend to have had any bad days. I have a picture of my dad nearby but it cheers me up more than makes me sad. He'd have been most impressed that I went to Monza and would have wanted to know all about it I'm sure.
Oh well, better make sure that everything is returned to the bathroom so people can use it I suppose :-)
