cake and wood

loveheart cake

Does Davie take the advice of the cake on his week off? Well, first he painted the outside of the house – can highly recommend Ecos paints, never using nasty chemically things again after the experience of Daniel’s doors last winter which the joiners painted with something akin to toxic waste. Then, oh look the veranda is rotten, 45 years old, thin wood, no wonder really.
