A little holiday reading....

I read the first 2 books in the Assassin's Creed series while on holidays. Loved the fact it was written in English with Italian references and phrases. I wish I played video games...... maybe if I ask nicely, Sam will teach me?!

Ooops! I tiled it again.....

So I'm back from holidays, had a wonderful time. I'm posting a wall I did a few weeks ago, it forms a backdrop for my beloved table........

My hands were insanely sore afterwards (I hadn't cleaned my tools properly the last time and ended up grouting a lot of the wall with my hands.... hence the oooops!). But it was worth it. I also managed to pick up 3 rectangular cushions on sale at Penneys for 2 euro each! Totally thrilled, I just have to make the bench and then this little corner of the garden will be finished..........

PS. please excuse the sorry excuse for a bench in the first pic, it was a very temporary measure :-)
