Downton and a bit of a spend.

 Last night Tony and I went to see Downton at the local cinema.  We went for a good long walk along the promenade first before heading back to the cinema. The film was kind of as we expected and definitely worth watching if you're a Downton fan.

We're having new vinyl flooring layed in the conservatory on Thursday so today I've been busy emptying it. I've given the china cabinet a thoroughly good clean followed with a good buff with beeswax polish. It looks beautiful now and I really should buff it more often. Wax polish gives such a nice sheen to wood. It smells of lavender although it'll soon disappear. 

On Friday we have a new fridge freezer coming. We've paid quite a bit more for this than our last one and it comes with a ten year parts and labour warranty.  It's not a brand we'd heard of Liebherr but the write up is really good. If a company is prepared to offer such a great warranty then we feel it's definitely worth the money. 

We're off to carving club tonight and I can talk all things veg with Jim.

    1. I'll be glad to get the house put straight today. It looks like a junk shop with everything packed in.

    1. Downton was a welcome change from all the nasty violent stuff that we've watched recently. They don't seem to make anything that doesn't involve murder or unpleasant people any more.
