The alarm woke us at eight this morning, we headed down for coffee then set to with the sander to try and finish the floor before we had to take it back to the rental place. We got most of it done and i decided we would just have to finish the rest off with our hand sander, so we headed back off to Arras with the car loaded up with sanders. When we got there the man asked if we had brought back any unused sanding sheets, we hadn't, he advised this was going to cost us so he let us drop off the machines and go back on Monday with any sheets to pay. We then headed into Leroy Merlin to get same sanding pieces for the hand sander, some white paint and some glue for the skirting boards, then back home. I sat for ages sanding away at the floor, it didn't do much but it got it to a stage where we decided we could varnish, i cleaned the whole room up with the hoover then we set to varnishing, what a lovely color it came up.
After this we decided to have a short rest, ant napped for a couple of hours and i watched The Cat Returns by studio Ghibli, a great anime film. Ant then started on the cutting in in the middle bedroom while i cleaned out the kitchen and made a start on dinner, meatballs et fusli al forno, or meatballs and pasta baked in the oven, it was ok. We polished off the beautiful bottle of Salitage Chardonnay with it then relaxed in front of the telly. Ant then got up and started on his preparations for the trip on Sunday, then phoned gran and chatted to her, he put her on to me for a bit then finally we relaxed for the night. We had an earlyish night due to the wake up at five thirty the next morning to get ant to Lille in time.
