No posts, no pictures, no computer
Hi all,
Just a little quick update. Our computer’s power supply died last week, hence the lack of blog updates from us – but do not fear mike is on the case and we should hopefully be back up this week. Power supply is being ordered today and hoping for it to be delivered “manana” – see you on the other side!
Other than that we are all well, started painting Tomás room at the weekend and we are now sleeping in the living room again 🙁 But that just gives more of an incentive to finish sooner.
Until next time.
Mike
It is finished. The basement photos.
After much pain and painting we are glad to inform you all that the basement is now finished (except for the alcove bit and the radiator pipes) and carpeted! In fact we are going to be sleeping there tonight! Thought you would like to see finished product.
Another Tuesday – the photos of the basement
These are photos of the basement just after the builders had finished it – prior to us decorating it.
Another Monday, another post
Hey all,
The beginning of the week and one wonders what news I can share with my beloved friends. Well, there’s a few things I can fill you in on. We are finally at the end of the basement decoration saga – after 4 coats of paint on the walls & ceiling we are close to completing this task. The carpet is due to come this Saturday so everything has to be done by then 😉 All that’s left now is one wall to paint and then the skirting all around the room. So hopefully by Sunday we should have a fully usable extra room with nice soft carpet on the floor. I can’t wait. Pictures to follow.
Tomás as always is doing well, having some unusual waking up times in the last couple of days, but nothing a good cup of tea and 8 hours sleep can’t resolve. 🙂 We are in the process of reducing his day sleeps to just one a day and hopefuly that will help him continue to sleep through the night.
This is my 2nd week back at work and everyone is back – we are firing on all cylinders! Anyway, must dash – see you all soon.

One Semester of Spanish – Love Song
I was sent this video a few weeks ago and I thought it was well funny, so I decided to share it with you all. It is described as: “Learn how to romance a girl with one semester of spanish put to a catchy song.“
Enjoy!
Happy New Year! Feliz Ano Nuevo!
Well the New Year is finally upon us and some of us had to return to work yesterday. I have to admit that it’s been a nice break with xmas in Solihull & a very quiet New Year here in London. Not to forget a little bit of DIY also – not too much though. So what have we been up to I hear you say? Well, in November we had the privilege of going to see Delirious at a small intimate gig in Mayfair.
Tomás as always is growing up to be a right little star with lots of energy all the time & now walking around everywhere. He continues to be a very happy baby as you can see below:
And then as you know Christmas we spent in Solihull and New Year together with Andi & Cheryl (fancy dress-check out the photos).
Well we hope to keep you all posted with news of what’s in store for us in 2008. See you soon.
