What a day!!! we woke early and had coffee, then started on the removal of the furniture from the living/dining room, we managed to have this done by nine thirty and headed to Hesdin to hire a floor sander and get some other bits from Mr Bricolage. When we arrived we were told the guy that deals with rentals was out at the post office so we would have to wait, we had a mooch around then came back to the rental desk. The guy was there but told us the sander was broken, we asked where the nearest place to get one was and were told we would have to go to Arras. We high tailed it up to Arras to get there before the lunch time close down, and got there with half an hour to spare. The place we went had a special offer on the hire of the machines, and we got both the big sander and the edger, varnish and sand paper, then headed back home.
The big machine was a real swine, the paper would touch the floor then just tear, so i ended up doing most of the floor with the edger, then finally i got the hang of the big machine and got a huge section of the floor finished. By eight thirty we were done in so decided to call it a day and finish off in the morning, ant sent me up to the bedroom with the tv to relax whilst he made dinner. He came up half an hour later with a tray laden with sausage, chips and egg, two deserts, and some cheese, what a sweety, it was the first food we had had all day so it went down quickly. After this we settled down to a little tv, then by ten in the evening we were so done in we decided to call it a day and headed to bed, with the joy of more sanding to look forward to in the morning, with in minutes we were both asleep.
