The queen's apartment / flat is almost done. Needs to be cleaned properly, and then I can get the carpet guy in to fit the bedroom carpet. After that I'll hang the curtain rails and it's done. Oh, and I need to pull in a TV cable from the current aerial, and a telephone cable, and one for the intercom.
Geez, I got plenty to do still! Oh well, I'm home for a whole week next week looking after the Princess, so I'll have plenty time to get that done. Overall, although it has taken much longer than planned, and cost more than I expected, it has worked out just fine. It has also added much value to the property.
Now if I can just get this garden sorted out....
Still have to complete therailings around the deck and stuff, but that's all external, and can be done as / when time / finance allow.
As the queen managed to cancel the sale of her current property, she's in no hurry to move in. She really did herself no favours, and was impulsive to her detriment. She cancelled the deal based on the fact she didn't think the buyer was being totally honest with her. Like it matters. As long as the cash is real...
Anyway, I'm going to see if I can get her to move in the meantime, and if we don't get the other place sold, maybe put in a tenant. That way she has a second income. Could come in handy too. I could get her to install DSTV (cable TV) into the house!! Now there's an idea!
As for the garden, I've decided that we will have to do more terracing if I want to have morusablele ground. So I'm going to enquire about retaining blocks, and delivery of much filling soil. Probably going to cost another arm and leg, which will leave me fully quadriplegic!
Princess is doing much better thank you!
Salagatle!
