Totally Floored

Well, the First Floor at least. Here's what it looks like now...

Peas please, Louise...

Amongst the old wood brought home from the shop yesterday were the old shutters that were on the front window. Here's a picture of what they looked like.
Ian had noticed that one of them was repaired with a flattened-out tin can. I took it off at home and cleaned it up a bit. Interestingly (in the days before Baked Beans, presumably) it was a tin of peas!

Partly Floored

It's been almost a month since any work was done in the shop, but this Monday Ian was back in to start the first floor. All the old, short boards that were left were removed and the new pine boarding started.
When you looked down through the unboarded half - this was the view:

This morning I went over to Le Dorat and helped Ian to get all the old boards and other bits of wood that are not needed here (but perfectly good for the wood-burning stove) into his van, and we took them over to my house.

This pile is just the old boards from upstairs...
... and now my woodshed is stuffed full!...
