Sunday 9: After weeks of " who's going to help Danny with the fit-out", Sue next door said her husband Michael is a cabinet maker. So, Danny and Michael finished the trim outside, Michael wired up the stereo, cb radio and they also attached the aerial and spotlights (ex-Suzuki!). Thursday 13: Keith gets dropped off at Carb-Tec to get his carbie overhauled...and he comes back with a bit more grunt.
Sunday 16: Meeting with Michael, Danny and me about the Internal Plan: Michael agrees about putting the guitar cupboard in the corner and the pantry will be above the gas bottle compartment. Hoorah!
Sunday 23: Sammy's first drive of Keith to the Palace Hotel, Woody Pt. After a day of Danny and Michael building the framework for the stove and sink cupboards and answering the question: Where will the water heater go? Under the fridge ofcourse!
Saturday 29:Sammy and Danny score some free vintage laminex for the kitchen splash back and cupboards (from out the back shed at Moreton Bay Floor Covering in Sutton St, Redcliffe) and purchase a couple of woodgrain end of rolls for the floor.
Michael and Danny do the fridge cupboard framework and Poustie comes back in the late arvo for some 240 volt wiring (Thanks Matt, Poustie's son for the cable!)
Sunday 30:
Michael and Danny build more framework for the little cupboard next to the fridge and the outside storage boxes. They explain to me how the lounge cushions are going to need to be modified for the fold-out bed and storage underneath. Takes a while for me to catch on...but eventually I get it!
Monday 31: Sammy and Danny take a few things in Keith to Albion Auction Centre. We have a lovely lunch at the corner shop in Shorncliffe, then pop into Peninsula Plywoods and order the ply for Keith's interior - a 70's looking woodgrain.
What a great month - the end is now in sight!
