Laura gets sidetracked…
The floor is being a bit of a problem. Laying ply on top of insulation didn’t work. So that all came up. Then we spent a while wondering if self-levellin’ resin would solve the tracking problem. As fun as it is to say it’s not the answer. Now the angle grinder has come out to see if it can get the tracks out. If this works (please please let it work) we will then have to fill the gaps, rust treat them and sand it all down.
Its time consuming but one way or another we have a beautifully flat floor.
So while Slim is playing with machinery I thought I would write an entry about the other things that have happened with Big Trev.
He made an appearance at a wedding near Thame- I believe this isn’t the only appearance he made in wedding photos- and played taxi (& Slim taxi driver) to drunken wedding guest taking it in turns to wear horses head mask. If you are confused imagine how the poor lorry drivers on the M4 felt.
He has also been camping to a field in Hampshire (Bishop’s Green Farm) and met some of the Sharratt clan where he almost (but not quite) managed to steal the thunder from William at his 1st birthday party.
And I have been looking at pretty things on the internet and have received a lot of emails from Slim telling me that ‘no that very flowery kitsch duvet cover/sofa cushion fabric/ random cute tat is not going in Big Trev’.
The flowery camping mugs with lids were a hit though and will be arriving anyday now!
Coming up there is a trip to the Tovey’s and a camping trip to Kitts Cottage Campsite in Sussex.
Keep your fingers crossed for the floor and hopefully next time we post the beautiful vinyl will have been laid…
I actually cannot wait to see what happens next. You can park big Trev in a field near us any time he is a beast.
Manchester also would very much like to make Big Trev’s aquaintance some time … just don’t park him in our street! Or do and get him a MagnaVolt security system from Robocop 2 – that would be super ace!
Ah nice picture! You can just make out big trev behind Melissa’s head haha
Love the mugs. What is the web address for the duvet covers?!! Neighbours all came to ask if Peter was all right after Big Trev’s visit!!
