Repairs..

are beyond our ability.. but painting of the better surfaces we can manage. I have left it too late to get a painter to paint the outside of our house this autumn so this weekend we have set to with sandpaper and scrapers followed by brushes and paint to repaint what we can. We will definitely have to get a joiner in to repair some of the windows and doors.. oh dear! It is such a boring job but once it is done the house looks so nice. I hate the smell of the paint.. ugh!
