Day Eight - Not much progress

Today was probably the least productive of all so far. The mojo went missing again and all I managed was the first load of Polyfilla in the gaps in the wall for the electrical work I did yesterday, terminating the bare wires and having another go at the cooker base unit.

Before I filled the gaps I terminated the ends with proper junction boxes so was able to test it. The red light came on when the power was resumed so I have taken this as good news and started covering it all up.

I have noticed that the double plug socket that was next to the cooker point will also be above the new cooker so that too will need to be moved but I have decided to concentrate on fitting the base units until Tuesday when the worktops will be cut and fixed. I have got friends coming over specially to do that so I really need to concentrate on making sure that it is all in place.

Apart from tidying the electrics I have joined the cooker base unit to the corner unit but still need to attach it securely to the wall. This will be the first job tomorrow - after the Grand Prix of course!

I downed tools early to scrub up to go out tonight and it was a lovely evening but coming home to a house that can only be described as a Bad Day in Beirut was a bit disspiriting. This has given me the boost I need to get those base units in place tomorrow and Monday come what may. I think the mojo has returned!
