Up to speed.

This is the calm before the storm people!

Me and the wife have some major renovation work planned over the upcoming long weekend here in Denmark. So expect some major photo updates to come, but until then I figured I would bring you all up to speed on what I have been up to of late.

Yesterday we had some guests pop by our flat to say Hi and have some Nom. One of then was my very small but very cute German friend.


Beanbags are rather good baby holders it turns out.



"What on Earth are you talking about woman.."


We finally got our Velux blinds though the other day (well over a week ago actually) but being the 'Groves house' things never run smooth. The blinds have two inserts or pull downs, one is for total black out and the other allows some light in without you being seen from the outside. This is where the problems began, I got the one in the guest room all set up...



Screen for black out made.



Screen for not-so-black out mode.

All was going well with the one in the main bedroom until I had to clip in the one for the screens. One clip would just not go into place, I figured I missed something so I went over all my steps. Then I spotted that there was an problem with the Left & Right clips that go on each side. What was the problem you ask? They were BOTH LEFT CLIPS!


You cant really see but there is a big L on each clip...one of the should have a big R.

So we need to pop back to the shop at some point and get it changed which is a real pain in the bum.It took a few weeks for these to arrive so we will probably have to wait for the replacement...oh well.

But as mentioned before we are planning something big for the weekend, so we needed to get lots of DIY supplies. Yay! Man shopping. :)


No, not he Band or the design school....but the DIY store.
We got bags of stuff but i'll show you all that next time.


We will also be need this bad boy for the up coming works....stay tuned!

As well as DIY supplies we also needed to get some shopping for food and other stuff. We have been super busy of late so this was a BIG shop as we were running very low on Nom!


Well, that should keep us going for a few days.
(I couldn't get the rest in shot)


All those years of Tetris paid off.



Skillz...I has thems!
