Middle Loo



Not the most glamourous post but I spent yesterday plasterboarding the middle loo.... much easier then plastering over the ridiculous artex! Please note the special access to the service valve which will eventually be covered over by a picture.

Facade and Windows



Emma has been sanding stone work and window frames this and last weekend - the painted stone work is a vast improvment, and now we've got the paint the windows will be as well soon.

Gardening

Emma ripped all the old tomato plants out and replaced them with some new ones after our trip to Gare du Midi this morning.


After some slightly more hardcore gardening I wrecked the spade - bent the wrong way and a split that shouldn't be there at the bottom of the handle.... we'll be havign an arguement with the man in brico one night this week then tryign to get a new one.... one the plus side most of the retro edging has been removed.


1st Floor Bathroom

Hopefully the first video worked........ there is another, this time of the first floor bathroom.

Top Bathroom

A first for BeeckmanTowers - a video - I think its the best way to see all the elements of the bathrooms we finished a couple of months ago. Basin, Mirror, Bath, Shower. Just need to build in the cupboard.

Rue Beeckman Street Party



Last Sunday was "Dimanche sans Voitures" so the residents of rue Beeckman organsied a steet party, as ever we were the guests of honour! They were all very pleased to meet the new foreign neighbours.
