in other news....Blinds!

I knew I'd forgotten some major flat event - The Blinds!!!

- Purchased painlessly and pleasantly parsimoniously from The Discount Blind Centre shop just off Northcote Road, from the young and helpful Gerhard.

- Collected (breathless after a 7 minute dash from Clapham Junction so as to arrive before the 6pm closing time - it rained, so 'SWT services were subject to delays') on Tuesday evening, in advance of annoyed/ing Antoinette's visitation.

- Installed the same evening (after le depart d'Antoinette) with assistance (and drill) from the lovely Phil.

Dad will remind me that venetian blinds are plagued by dust, but I think mine look Just Right
