A five o'clock wake up this morning then a quick get ready and off to Lille for ant, he's off to Hong Kong for five days! I am not sure i will be able to cope as the will to carry on with the work on my own is already being slowly sapped. I got back by half eight and sat down to another coffee and went on line, did the blog and looked at Adelaide Now then some real estate, checked out Mount Barker but it was a little pricey as well. I looked at the euro to aus dollar exchange rate also and realized we would have a fair bit less than i thought, we will just have to hope it gets a little better. I spoke to ant on the phone and he told me off for wasting time on the computer and to get on with the painting, so i was about to make a start when the post person came and i got the electric bill i had been waiting for, i phoned the company only to be told that they would not be reimbursing the eight hundred euros we have over paid until February!! so this annoyed me a little, phoned ant again and he again got shirty about me not having started work.
I started painting the stairs we had papered the day before, it was not too hard but i made a little bit of a mess on the cutting in, after the first coat went up there was not enough paint left to start on the second coat, so i wasn't sure what to do with myself, i phoned ant again, then decided i would go have a shower and get ready for the evening, i managed to get into a pair of jeans i had not worn for a while, so that pleased me, then rested in front of the tv until Tony and Jackie arrived.
Tony and Jackie arrived at about seven and we headed off to Greg's for the party, it was in full swing by the time we got there, Greg has a band and there was a little marquee set up at one end of the garden and a food and drinks bit at the other. We set ourselves up near the food and drink and sat and chatted and listened to the music, there was also a pig on a spit which was interesting, the meat was delicious.
By about ten we had had enough and headed back here, Tony and Jackie came in for a coffee and chatted for a good while longer then they headed off home and i headed off to bed, quite tired by this point, i read for a little while then went to sleep.
