Yesterday my Livebox was delivered and by late evening I had it connected to my computer and internet phone. This house has been dragged into the world of technology - fast-boil, eco-kettle, computer and all those peripherals, cooker hood, microwave, bread machine, answer machine, electric toothbrush, halogen lights......strange really, as there are very few sockets in this house, so until next month when the electrician comes (yes, really!) I am constantly unplugging and swapping gadgets, according to need - all that whilst shuffling around in the semi-dark, due to the fact that there are no overhead lights downstairs, and only the street lights to brighten the bathroom (these are turned off at 11.20, so if I stay up late, it's a bit murky in there).
I think the house is enjoying it's rejuvenation. As for me, my hands are looking rough as more nasty wallpaper hits the black plastic sacks, and the old plastered or wooden walls reappear after decades - wallpaper on wood panelling?!
