Frisian Frillies

I can't think of a title more appropriate than this one! Here's my Berlin socks: See a few blogs back for specs... I'm very happy with them, even though it is not really sock weather here! (After a few days of high 20s, we are at 22C today.) And here is my wall: Please ignore the banisters... Just look at the wall. I made that! With big S of course. We also had to do the ceiling, which was not a nice thing I can tell you in the heat we were having, even with the air cooler... Today we put the lights up over the door (halogen), fixed the door frame (ish) and big S is in the process of tacking the laminate down at the stair end (although I can hear him groan, so I assume it's not really going the way he wants it to, oops - o, latest news, crisis averted). Final touches time! Things like plints, hinges for our 'hinding spaces'and then a clear-up. The book cases are in already and one is fully dedicated to eBay/Marktplaats. We have so much * * * * that we need to ge...

Luckily, no. But here's a picture to show what I'm up to in between sun bathing and knitting: painting! We've finally got to the finishing touch stage upstairs in the attic. The horrible brown beams are now the colour of the paint on my fingers... Unfortunately it is too hot to do a lot (attic = even hotter, despite the air cooler), so progress is slow... My first Berlin is finished though! No picture yet, camera batteries are charging (again)... And a picture I just think is cool. An artist has transformed one of the squares in town into a huge collection of fried eggs. Why? No idea. But then again, that's what art is all about... It just makes you smile.
