New Kitchen Progress...

As promised, an update on the kitchen progress...

The new kitchen is now nearly finished. We are still short of one cabinet door and a tray insert for one of the drawers. All other parts of the new kitchen are working as they should. The best part of the new kitchen is the dishwasher. We have not done any dishes by hand for a month now, bloody brilliant! We must be one of the last families in England to have been doing the dishes by hand, but alas, we have a machine for it now, thank %$£%$%ck!



The new cooker is very good. We haven't found anything with it that we don't like. The best part is the rotisserie in the oven. We are grilling chickens, sides of beef, ducks whatever, it is great. The meat stays nice and juicy while crisping up the outside, these must be the best grilled chickens this side of London hahahaha.....


The missus has stuck some flowers and potplants on the windowsill and that does look rather nice. Lets just see how long they last. Jackie hasn't got green fingers as such. Most plants in her care survive on a spartan regime of water once every 3 months.... Needless to say that most plants in her care take the easy route and die as soon as possible to avoid a lingering slow death hahahahaha....


This is the door that is still missing. Trust Homebase the DIY store to make us wait on one single 30 cm door more than 4 weeks...

Never mind, the big work now is the old kitchen. That needs ripping out and waterpipes need re-routing and the whole floor in the new and the old kitchen needs re-tiling. That'll be done last. It won't happen this weekend as I 'm off to Jackie sister on saturday with the caravan for an evening on the beer in Thetford.

Cheerio,

Alex.
