TSC has made me feel like a princess (albeit not a very well groomed one - he woke me up at 5am to give me my presents. NOT a morning person). He spoiled me with two new types of bubble bath. I'm fussy about it - I don't like flowery stuff like Rose or Lavender. It must be spicy, fruity or chocolaty. He got it just right.
I also got the gorgeous bright pink memory foam slippers I wanted from Woolies, a stylish black handbag to replace my ancient and abused one that I bought years ago and the divine Neroli Jasmin eau de toilette from Body Shop.
Le pretty pink slippers...
Very spoilt!
Here, because I promised them to you, are some before, during and after shots of our recent house projects...
Veranda, before
Veranda, during
Veranda, after (with new tiles that don't show all the dirty little cat pawprints)...
Braai area with old, ugly paving removed...
Braai area with waterproofing and concrete-pouring complete...
Braai area, after. New tiles! Now I just have to tidy the area up and put in some pot plants and it will be beautiful.
The guest loo once TSC had removed our old, ugly basin with horrible leaky taps (what a flipping mission - the first replacement basin we bought had corners, which meant that in our pathetically designed guest loo, even though the basins were the same size, the door couldn't close past the corners. We had to swap the first new basin for a second one, and that required some serious plumbing ingenuity on TSC's part as the plug hole was in a different place).
The guest loo with the second new basin (and a mixer tap - no more leaky horrible hard-to-close monster taps. Yay!), the new towel and toilet-roll holders and new listellos (that border of tiles above the old ones). Visiting the guest loo is now a much happier experience ;-)
*Well, it wasn't even 9am, but Blogger took so bloody long to upload my photos!
