House decorating all finished now so yesterday we went shopping for new light fittings (ceiling, table and freestanding), a standalone electric fire, curtains, voiles and some more concrete garden ornaments (tortoise, hare and a hedgehog).
Couldn't stop tripping the electrics after fitting the ceiling lights so asked a kindly neighbour (with an electrical qualification) to sort it out....took him ten minutes to sort (I'd inadvertently crossed a wire) so I paid him in wine terms because he refused offers of money.
Wife is now quite happy and I'm even happier because the wine was from her stocks and I got to keep all my beer
