Today, car dropped off for minor service and brake fluid change, £190 all in, main dealer wanted that for the service alone. New, new flooring has arrived and is the correct shade of brown, I’ll be keyboard bashing all day trying to get a couple of cases passed to my researcher to keep her busy next week while I’m off. Currently being thwarted by IT issues… pick car up and start clearing contents of furniture in the lounge. I may defer this in favour of watching the final Mission Impossible film. Although I do need to hump in 600kg of flooring so it can start to acclimate.
Tomorrow, rip up carpets & underlay, remove gripper rods and nails, scrape and secure floorboards, lay new underlay and start setting out flooring which needs to be perpendicular to the archway to the dining room as the flooring is going to continue into there at a later date. Prepare a load of dough for pizzas on Sunday.
Sunday, tidy up the house in preparation of arrival of daughters and their partners for pizzas from the new oven, they are supplying labour to move the items of furniture I can’t manage by myself. Current menu is margarita, pepperoni, nduja, fennel sausage with sprouting broccoli and a dessert pizza with custard, Biscoff biscuits and spread, latter ones are recipes from Peddling Pizza. Doggo is going to stay with the ex for a week(
) which means lie ins
Monday - Saturday, week off, floor laying
Sunday, arrival of new sofas which prompted the change in flooring!
(Most of it is going straight into cash ISAs/cars and home improvement funds). 
And thats about it. Still dont go back to work for another week, so might even attempt to get some new decking put down, or go away in the camper again? Decisions, decisions...
