Hornsea bargains.

Tina and I got a few things into the car before she went to her meeting. The Gtec, some pictures and the animal cage that we got from the charity shop. I made my way up to the Parish House a bit later to meet her as we had to be in Hornsea by 11 am and Tina had told the fence man that we would be there between 11 am and 1 pm.
The painting in the house is going really well, the kitchen is well on the way to being finished.

The utility room will be the same colour when it is finished. The downstairs loo that Mike had papered is looking good, they have painted the ceiling white and said he had ordered the paint for the walls. We couldn't remember what colour we had picked but apparently it is Mint.

We had the Gtec with us so I hoovered the carpeted rooms. The living room and Darren and Tina's bedroom are both looking good, nice to photograph them without all the painting equipment everywhere.

We are pleased with the combination in the dining room.

They are putting a coat of paint on the garage walls, this is going to be Darren's 'shed'.

A couple of my pigs found their way to the fireplace in my living room!

I waited in the house for a bit while Tina went off to meet with some of her new colleagues, sadly the fence man didn't turn up. We had planned to walk along the main street to the Craft Cafe for lunch and to see what sort of stuff goes on there. There is a little second hand shop quite near the vicarage which has been closed each time we have been. Today it was open and we went in for a browse. Very chatty, friendly owner, who says he will come along to Tina's induction service. We have been looking for dining chairs, we have seen some at the auction but haven't had room to store them. There were four, very new looking Next chairs we think, a good price so Tina bought them and the owner helped us get the along to the vicarage.

I spotted a great little cabinet, not really sure if it was intended as a bedside or telephone cabinet, but either way it is lovely and I got it for £12.

After the diversion we made out way along to the Craft Cafe, had a very tasty lunch and a look around the craft area. They have some courses and also have to half day sessions each week, one knitting and one crochet. Then we made out way to the carpet shop for Tina to arrange when the hall flooring will be laid. The had some squares of carpet, there was a £1 sticker near them, but as they were bound all round I couldn't believe that was right. I asked if they were for sale and he told me to help myself. I was very good and just took three!!

We came home via Sainsbury's as it is Double Up time. We got some household stuff and some clothes. Then we did a bit of shopping. As I am not now having my stuff moved out on Saturday I got some lovely flowers to enjoy.

We did get a pair of very cute and rather silly gloves each, they had to be had!

I have been feeling quite tired so haven't done a great deal this evening, having a break from packing tonight.
