Almost Christmas

The new shower room is just about complete now. I even turned up a toilet roll holder which will be a novelty. Today I focused on the boot and shoe area which will hopefully see the stair case freed of debris in the future.

We are being battered by the same weather front that is presently pounding the UK. There has already been one power cut, for an hour and a half, and numerous tiles have come loose from the barn and the hay loft. The worst is due to hit us in the middle of the night with winds gusting at up to 146 km/h. I'm not looking forward to my morning walk about as I feel tomorrow may well be another day of roofing.

The head count for our New Years eve bash in now up to 30. I decided to take the easy option on the catering front by going for jacket spuds and chilli along with asking guests to bring nibbles, puddings etc.
