The rollercoaster of living in London. Come & take a ride with us :-)

Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!

Phew! We did it!!! We have painted, carpeted, put up curtains, put up lights and emptied boxes all in time for mikes parents to arrive. We have finally got our own bedroom!!! Pictures are to follow as Tomás is about to wake up any minute.

It's been a long slog and it's not completely over but we are pleased to say that mike's mum and dad arrived today and we could offer them a room for a change! I have to go will be back soon with the pics.

Been quiet but busy

Oh well what can I say, the days have gone by and I have managed to not upload an image or video :-(. Sorry. The good news is that all is well in the land of the Cartwrights. Yesterday Andi & I babysat the kids while the wives went off to Ali's hen do. Not much to report except that we managed to survive the afternoon without the help of our wonderwomen :-). Work has been busy as always the beginning and ends of months are when most things need to be done. I've got my annual review next week so we will see how things progress. The rest from the DIY looks like is nearly over as the room downstairs is now nearly ready to be painted - so in the next 3 weeks I can kiss goodbye to easy going evenings, bbqs and just lounging around. We need to have the room fully decorated, carpeted and new couch purchased by the end of this month. Pictures of before and after will be provided :-p

Anyway I'm gonna cut this short as Tomás is shouting at me for some attention. He's now awake pretty much every day around 6am and is ready for action from the moment he wakes up to the moment he goes to sleep. It's all fun really. Talk to you soon.
