Last night I drove from Cheltenham to Swindon to pick up a steering wheel, then to Ikea in Bristol to buy the drawers for our media unit, then back to Cheltenham to do food shopping, then to my parents to assemble the heaviest, most substantial solid oak dining table in the world! When I got back home it was midnight, but I still wanted to put one of the drawers in, and it fits lovely. I'll do the other one tonight.

Also tonight I'm going to start tackling the resurfacing of the service trench, using cold-lay tarmac bags from Wickes. The bags will have to warm up, so tonight I'll do the weedkillering and disc cutting straight lines down each side of the trench, then tomorrow I can lay out the tarmac and squash it down.
