Please meet our new sink:


we have a different tap, though
It's by Swiss company Franke and was sourced from Reece in Burwood.  It was chosen because it is deep (200mm) and big (798mm wide) and solid.  One brochure says it comes accessorised with the drainer, draining basket and chopping board although the specifications sheet has no mention of the draining basket, so I must remember to check when I pick it up in a couple of days.


We used Peter Builder's trade account to get a big 5.4% discount.  He was over this morning to commence the installation of my long long long awaited shelves.  Hopefully they'll be finished tomorrow and ready for painting.


And just to divert into the garden, we're hoping this is parsley that's gone to seed




Because we've just replanted some continental parsley and sprinkled these seeds on top with the expectation of a healthy crop.


The new settlement of parsley.
The garden is feral. We'd been waiting for the rubbish 
to be removed from the front before we got the lawns done.
We obviously shouldn't wait much longer.
Note too, in the background, the sad concrete cherub
who recently lost her wings in a tragic entanglement
with a wet sheet on a windy day.
