Back to my photos, my camera. It was great fun to share Jolyon's and Katya's photos.
We are re-doing our home and adding an addition on. The floors are not finished throughout, the wood on the walls is where stone will go, but we had plenty of food, drink and flushing toilets! People still had fun despite the house still under construction.
