Saturday was predicted to be 'the hottest day so far this year' and, by 9am, when the temperature outside the car hit 35 degrees, it looked like the weather guy got it right for once. Off we went to the bathroom store to choose tiles, fittings and generally get ripped off by the smiling sales guy. The air con in his showroom was a welcome escape from the heat outside, however deciding to part with so much money for the sake of a new bathroom was fairly nerve wracking.
Next job on the list for the day was another trip to the hardware store to pick up a sanding tool and a few other things before heading back to the house. The sanding then commenced with gusto and, after about two hours of blood, sweat and tears (literally), it was decided that sanding back the window frames and varnishing them wasn't such a great idea after all. Much of the timber has aged and weathered to the point that sanding it wasn't going to improve it's appearance so it was decided to just paint the window frames instead. So from there the sanding went on, however, just with the intention of preparation for an undercoat and two coats of "white swan" (how many names are there for 'cream' anyway???).
