As it can't be all picnics and car booting, we did a little work on our poor forlorn kitchen (still residing in Rich's mum and dads garage, good lord they must be sick of the damn thing taking up all the space!) on the plus side the enamel metal sink was actually in better nick then original thought, I think we can get away without re-enameling it! However the frame work at the back of the unit was...well...not longer there...
Ooh look, exactly a month since my last post, where the hell has the last 4 weeks gone?? Well 2 of them where spent up in Shropshire with our parents, enjoying chocolate eggs and royal weddings (oooh it was so good!!!), we did many nice things, spent time with lots of lovely peeps, some of whom we haven't seen in ages (my lovely globe roaming sister is back in the Shrew! Woo and indeed Hoo!). As it can't be all picnics and car booting, we did a little work on our poor forlorn kitchen (still residing in Rich's mum and dads garage, good lord they must be sick of the damn thing taking up all the space!) on the plus side the enamel metal sink was actually in better nick then original thought, I think we can get away without re-enameling it! However the frame work at the back of the unit was...well...not longer there... So a little rebuilding will need to take place, but all in all not so bad, although I think we will need the doors respraying (I think we can get a car body place to do). I think the problem above was coursed by years of the sink waste leaking slighty as the shelf under it have obviously had a bucket of water on it for long periods of time, the shelf had actually bent under the weight (easily done, we spent 3 years with a bucket under the sink at the last house until we finally got round to fixing it) So we need to find some new taps, and possibly a new bit of work top as the bit behind the sink is rotten, luckily we have a company called Source here in Bath and what to they specialise in, yes English Rose Kitchens. Fingers crossed we can buy some taps of them, we'll see.
