UK Blogger Prevents Fuel Protest

In a shock U-turn today, the protests promised earlier in the week have largely failed to materialise. The main reason for this has been attributed to a blog entry posted by a sole Englishman yesterday.

You can tell its been a bit of a slow day today.

So, some updates on the house:

The kitchen has now been plastered, as have a lot of the other walls in the house. We now have a new ceiling in the kitchen and pretentiously titled "sun room". The builders have started replacing some of the upstairs ceilings. Most of the wiring is now concealed - including the bit behind where the tv is going to go which we wanted to leave till last so that we could conceal some cables behind it. So those are the positives.

The only negative is that we misunderstood when the kitchen fitter was going to come back so that'll be week after next, not next week. Yum - pot noodle tonight.

Wedding-wise, I've had to put off BM (Best Man) for another week or so. He was going to come over so that we could choose our outfits. Ooooh Smell 'Er! But we haven't really got a house for him to stay in at the moment.

W2b picked up her dress after the final fitting. Obviously I haven't got much to say on that as I haven't seen it. She's been excited today at the prospect of getting silly shoes (think she's feeling constrained by bowing to pressure and wearing a dress and veil).

Sid's been ominously quiet today. Short on supplies though, so must remember to order some tomorrow.
