Eggbert's Travels

Saturday 9^th December 2017

SHE SAID:

There was new carpet laid downstairs in the house at Farrer today.

Luckily Carmel had invited Val out of the day, so she wouldn't stress with everything being done. The 2 guys putting it in were friendly, put on their music, & got on with the job. They were done by lunchtime.

We spent the afternoon getting the place back to "normal".

Empty lounge with old carpet

"Champ & Chief" the carpet layers

Down to the old floor

Old lino in the study

All new now in the study

New underlay

New carpet; not much difference in colour but new smell & looks heaps better!

A lovely sunset over the house tonight

HE SAID:

Hopefully Mum enjoyed her day out. Liaising with the carpet blokes was always going to be a lot simpler if Varena and I were in the house, so we planned on being around all day to oversee the activities and discuss any minor points. The carpet was all finished before lunch, so we moved most things back to their original places, well before Mum returned.
