    The repair you did on that windowsill is outstanding, nobody would ever know the corners were broken off so it was well worth the effort and saved you some money too. It's all looking great and really coming together, looking forward to seeing what you achieve in 2025. Happy New Year to you & your boys too xx

    Hi Andrew, I'm glad you tried the repair rather than buying a new piece because like you mentioned it's not a new house and even if it didn't work out perfectly it adds character but it did work out really well 🙌
    Wishing you a Happy New Year and looking forward to seeing you complete your home in 2025 🎉 Cheers🍷🍷

    Happy New Year! Hubby wears those beanies with the lamps all the time in his work... You just pop the lamp out (handy for when the beanie needs laundering) and remove the end cap covering the USB port connection. The light changes to green when it's fully charged, which doesn't take long. Looking forward to following your journey in 2025

    I've patched clothes so often, that the original material doesn't exist. They're comfortable, soft, and loose enough that they aren't binding. Great for working in. I just have to remember not to wear them out in public.
    Happy New Year!

    Andy, those floor tiles are called TIJOLEIRA, after laying it down they can be 'sanded' or not with an industrial leveling machine and then waxed or varnished/epoxied. Bare in mind they are very irregular and the color differs a lot too. Happy holly season.
