August already & the kitchen will be finished soon

With T&C back in the UK it’s another week before Mick & Sue arrive on the same flight next Monday. We hope to get the kitchen finished this week and have a bit of beach time too.

On the kitchen front, the base units, sink and worktops are in. The tiles and wall units are to go on and the walls need painting. Having spent many a day putting tiles on in the unmentionable (bathroom) sorry, the tiling went fairly well. The wall units also went up fairly easily, I have to say these Ikea kitchen units are so easy to assemble and fit it is great. It all looks well but we think we will be getting another wall unit to go at the sink end to finish it off. We didn’t get one in case there wasn’t room as we weren’t sure how far over we would have to put the sink bases to accomodate the sink under the fixed taps. Mrs D was also busy charging around with a brush (paintbrush for a change) and a splendid job it is too.

Aside from all the kitchen fitting activity, we managed some time on the beach, an outing to Acharavi, helped some friends move house and we also tidied up the garden. All in all a very productive but satisfying week. Sunday night was chill out night before our trip down to the airport on Monday evening.
