Corridors done, and the bathroom started

Wow. Today was hot, and I don't like sweating litres out and putting litres back in whilst Im trying to work much. But...the de-stapling of the corridors is all done. If I got paid 20 cents for every staple that has been removed, I would have a lot of money methinks. The plumbers that are installing the hot water service, and replacing the sinks and the toilets in the bathrooms for us came to see me today and they are starting in the morning. Big job that, so they will be around for a few days to come yet.




Starting to strip the old tiles


The bathrooms are getting new tiles around the walls. Clean white 200mm x 200mm, and the floor grout (which is currently black) is going to be stripped out, and the whole lot grouted in a brilliant white grout. The bath here is going to be removed, taps capped off behind the new tiling, as it isn't really a good sized adult bath at all. We don't want baths in the rehab for clients during the week, as with 12 people using 3 bathrooms, it will take too long. We have a full bath in the staff bathroom, so we may allow occasional use of that one for weekends.

Victoria got a job today, so as of next week I lose a full time labourer. Damn you Terry White Chemists. No...not really. I am genuinely really pleased for her, and I am just grateful to have had the opportunity of her help and extremely hard work over the last few weeks. Vic has been doing jobs that most people wouldn't even consider doing with a smile on her face.
