Another step closer

2 more weeks and we should be ready to get the Real Estate Agents back again. I am on Holiday this week and Jenny and I have done a lot of cleaning up in the front and back of the House.


At the moment all we waiting on is on the guys to finish the resurfacing of the pool. Suppose to be finish this Saturday but as it looks at the moment it could be easy another week or even more, because of the reliability of the guys. The owner of the Business reckon, he is paying the workers already a lot more than the award wages. But as soon as they get paid you do not see them till they run out of money. Another problem here in Perth is, it is very hard to get any Tradesman .

Just about finish with Painting

Well, we are just about finish with painting the inside of our house. It took us longer than we have planned. Never mind.

At least tomorrow morning we will be going for a shortish ride for the first time in about 5 week. Somewhere between 35km -40 km. On Sunday morning we will be doing the Freeway Bike Ride.


Map of our planned Trip on the Tandem




This is the route we have planned to do when we have sold the house. We will be on the road for about 12 -18 mts. Again will be talking more about soon.

Not much riding !!!

This is the reason we have not been riding much lately.



We doing a lot of painting and all the other good jobs that come with it to get the house ready for Sale. It has taken us a bid longer than we planned. It should be finish by about Easter and go on the market after that.



In the Lounge and Formal Dinning Room we had exposed Ceiling. Timber was rough and worst of all painted in Mission Brown.



I lost count how many times I climbed up and down this stepladder




As soon as I did the first coat you could see all the gaps appearing. Of coarse they all had to be filled with "No more gap".




Here is Jenny doing her job. Cleaning the brushes, making me coffee, get lunch or dinner ready and every so often we would have a Shandy.

So far, it sure has improved the look of the place.




Got the new Carpet laid on Wednesday. Still have to paint one Bathroom, 2 Bedrooms and the Laundry. Hopefully after this weekend we should be close to have done all the painting.
