Bank Holiday Monday with 3 days off after it and a weekend off before it.. great! Time to get the kitchen cabinets built and fitted, and clear up the dining room ready for the floor to be done on Thursday.

Owning a house is better than renting since you don’t have to check with anything before getting phonelines added and so on, but it does mean that you have to pay for regular maintenance work to be done (or do it yourself).
When considering replacing a kitchen, always make sure you either have plenty of time and motivation to do it yourself, or ensure the price you pay includes everything although it’s likely to cost lots more!
