A warm and dry Wednesday

I bled the central heating system this morning and tested it after removing the radiator that was in the dining room. The outside wall was cut ready for the conservatory installation next week. The new shed has been arranged for delivey tomorrow morning.

No Welsh class this evening as Laura, Julie’s daughter, is going on holiday to America tomorrow.

A wet Monday

I removed a central heating radiator from the dining room today, it was positioned right in the middle of where the new French doors are going to gain access to the conservatory. The new garden shed is scheduled for delivery this week and as soon as I’ve put it together and demolished the old metal shed with the remains of the old fences we’ll have enough material to fill a third skip. My household agenda is looking fairly full for the next few weeks – painting the new fences, putting together the new shed, running armoured cable for the new shed supply, fitting roofing panels and guttering to the car port.

A warm dry Saturday

Work is continuing on the new fences, John is using an air powered nail gun to attach the feather edge uprights and it’s quite amazing how quickly the fence is being put up.

I’ve had to restore the main software drive on one of my computers as Norton Internet Security 2006 is still causing major problems if I use Live Update to take the latest program updates, it keeps accessing the drive and it’s impossible to open the Norton interface to disable it. I think when the subscription expires I’ll be uninstalling Norton on that machine and using an alternative solution for anti-virus, firewall and spam blocking.
