My First Contact with Wall Units
Woohoo! The three wall units arrived from Consett by Fed Ex this morning. We unpacked the boxes to find that they are all in pretty good shape. They are the original cream. A couple of knocks here and there and they still need stripping.
We instantly realise that we don’t have anywhere to put them so we stack them on top of the last lot of stuff that we don’t have room for either, with a promise to ourselves to take them to my parents’ garage as soon as the car is fixed again.
Later my dad texts me to say that “It’s lovely and sunny in Rostock” (they’re on a Baltic cruise). I feel faintly guilty that they’ve gone to all this trouble to clear out the garage only to have us fill it again, but needs must and I tell myself that I’m sure they’ll understand once they see the bigger picture.
We also realise that the units are subtly larger than the ones we have there at the moment and it will take a creative eye to get them all to fit.
Farouk hasn’t called about the fan switch. Will give him a shout tomorrow.
