Had a lot planned to do today, so got in early with some housework (even this is easier and more enjoyable now that we are more organised). Finished packing the trailer with junk to throw out ready to take to the tip later today. Loaded the shelving for Mr D on top.
Mr K and I then headed out (I dont think I have been out of the house in well over a week!) to visit a few shops:
- Freedom Furniture - to look at chairs, a sofa and end tables as well as lots of other lovely things

The 2 seater sofa I have picked out |
- Beacon Lighting - an ever so brief look in here to get a globe for Mr K's bakelite lamp, but I had my eyes scanned for when we do the lighting properly.
- A few other (not so nice) furniture shops - two of which had closing down sales. If you saw the stuff they had in there you would not doubt why they were clossing down. It was just awful
- Guildford - antique shops strip. Still looking for a few old pieces for Mr K's office.
- Guildford bakery - Lunch and a scrummy chocolate roulade to take to friends for dinner tonight.
Tommy and Minty came up with us, these friends are the owners of Tom Dogs most favorite girl dog in the whole world! They run and play and play and run for hours.
Lovely evening, spent eating roast and watching the Olympic dressage with great company. Home by 9pm and not long out of bed I can tell you.
Was excited about tomorrow and the start of working from my spanking new office. Did I say I was excited about work? Well yes I was actually, it was a damn good feeeling to have my very own, well set up, space to work in.
Oh, and quietly, between you and me - I was glad my 'holiday' was over. I am knackered!
