Mia Jones and my old friend Scott Hollingsworth invited Lauren and I over for the World Cup final today. Apparently, it was Mia’s ambition to fatten us all up for the kill. Tons of food, all quite good, follwoed by Lauren’s homemade Peach Pie. The game went as expected – and if a bit anticlimatic, it was a good afternoon spent eating, drinking beer and flapping our lips.

None of this particularly helped finish off the second bedroom, which is nearing it’s final stages. After a post-beer coffee shop run, it became clear that it was far too early for bed, and far too late to start anything major. Which of course led to me starting something major – like laying the cork flooring in the second bedroom’s sunroom. We managed to get all of the more complex cuts out of the way tonight, so that tomorrow it’s a straight march back into the main section of the bedroom.

Lauren thankfully took “before” photos of the sunroom, so we’ll have something to show for our work, mid to late week…. I hope.

A side note: 12 miles this AM keeps me on track for marathon training schedule.
