Pics as promised

---

We selected a bath and all our interior doors - in fact everything including the kitchen sink(s) - on Saturday and then dropped in on Gavin and Niome to see pics from their holiday in Japan. There are lots of trees and temples in Japan.

Back up the road Monday morning early to meet the electrician but just missed him. Anyway his assistant Robert turned up later and fitted various switches and sockets downstairs.

Ewan and I made a start on the upstairs flooring: in fact we spent the remainder of week flooring upstairs and completed the floors in the bathroom, little bedroom and our bedroom

Emma, one of our volunteers from last summer turned up to help Sue with "The Big Shed" project (for details check out Tombreck website).

Then tidied up in readiness for Wendy coming up at the weekend. Then down home Thursday evening dropping Emma at Stirling station.

Just remains to wish Billy a Happy Birthday next week.

Robert fixing up electrics
Maybe have power downstairs pretty soon

The wood for our bedroom ceiling
Spalted beech if your interested

New plasterboard snugly fitting gap between pillar and wall
This had been bothering me for ages

The whole of the moon
Perfect winter's evening. not too cold and no wind

Our new restroom
moved in here while we floored main bedroom

Looking out at the sunshine
View from our balcony to be, presently scaffolding

Limewashing straight on to block walls in larder
This seems to work quite well despite the fact that unlike paint when you apply it it seems to do no more than wet the wall

View towards loch
Keep looking for signs of Spring - looks like Sue's daffs could be out within the week
