Holiday

I've been off work for two days and have got a power of work done at home. We had a minor problem with the waste pipe from our bath leaking slightly and yesterday I rerouted the outlet from the toilet into a replacement plastic pipe so that next week I can connect the bath to it and do away with the old leaking pipe. The old walls in this house are very thick so any pipes going through walls takes ages, I spent a good part of yesterday on a ladder drilling through the outside wall, it is done and the gap roughly cemented up now.
Today is Friday and we started by cooking a load of soup so we can freeze it as we both like to take this to work for lunch. We also got into the garden and got two lots of early potatoes planted, the main vegetable area dug over and lots of cleaning up and tidying done. As it was a holiday we accompanied this hard work with several glasses of home made wine.
A good and satisfying couple of days
