It’s kitchen time! Oh God, it feels like we’ve been planning this for forever. I can’t tell you how many Saturdays I’ve lost to homebase, B&Q and that sort of lot, including today. It’s only a few days before work starts, and until today we hadn’t picked our floor or tiles yet. The units are delivered on Wednesday. Luckily we were extremely efficient in today’s Homebase visit.

We’ve also not yet picked a colour for the wall.

I’m kinda liking the top right one in this picture. But I have to compare to the tiles.

Speaking of tiles. Tiles!

They’re going to make a nice chequered pattern between the worktops and the units. And we also have floors!

Laminate, because it seems easier that way.

I can’t wait to get rid of the current kitchen, seriously.

It is just so bland!

And the oven doesn’t work.

The floor is.. well, I’m sure you can get the idea.

Then there’s the little things, like that bottom drawer there that doesn’t hang on quite right.

Plus, the boiler cupboard is, I don’t even know how to describe it.

What the hell is going on in there?? Where does that open space go? What’s hiding down there? I don’t even want to know. Eww.

So now I’m off out of the country for a few days for work, while Mr Pharmacist stays at home and in control of the situation. He has promised me to take pictures of the demo lashing of the kitchen. I can’t wait to see it all ripped to shreds. I wish I was here so I could take a hammer and offer to help! Goodbye, ugly useless kitchen!

Now, must decide which colour goes with the tiles. Oh hey, I forgot to post pictures of the updated bathroom, didn’t I?? I’ll get there, promise!
