Wow, sunshine at last! Its so good to be able to get outside and get some of that list of jobs underway. One of the many things that needed sorting was the outside living room window sill, which has been in a bad state since we moved in. Its is a bath stone lintel that at some point had been patched with concrete, which is about the worst thing you can use on bath stone! This has had god knows how many winters pecking away at it with the result that most of the old concrete was falling off and taking large chunks of the original stone with it.
So Rich spent last Saturday reshaping the sill with the composite bath stone mix which we used when rebuilding the fireplace last year, this is the recommend stuff and we found it to be great and dried back to a good colour last time. It is however a bit pricey so you have to be quick when using it so as not to waste any!

As Rich was busy I did all the other boring jobs like cutting the lawn and the box hedge which I always enjoy as it make the garden look so much nicer!
Even Stella is enjoying the sun!
