Pumps, Painting and the Pink Room

The pump is back and plumbed in.  The Davey repair guy found a little rubber plug jammed inside the motor that must have made its way in there during the manufacturing process.  It didn't come out of the pump itself.  He had never seen anything like it before.  Anyway the pump is back in service and going strong.  Just need some rain to start filling the tanks.

Internal painting has begun in earnest.  Starting with the spare bedroom getting it ready for Brian's visit.  Then moving onto the sewing room that Brian helped us paint a lovely shade of Pink called "fairy wings" with the addition of glitter.  If we were competing in House Rules I think this room would be our first 10/10.  Just as every guy deserves a shed, every girl deserves a pink room and Melinda now has hers.  Now to make some shelving and move in the sewing machines.

Meanwhile the shed is slowly getting a bit more organised.  We can actually move around in there now.  Each extra box or piece of furniture moved out is another step closer to having my shed back.

Nice bit of carpentry to add the shelves and give us some storage
