Warm light, Cool light:

In November all the lamps of my first Canal House suddenly started giving a very feeble light. Pretty though it was, it meant there was something wrong in the electrical circuit. In order to get to the root of the problem, I had to turn my house so I could reach the back where all the wiring comes together. Quite a big job and I didn't have time for that until last week. After a time consuming process of elimination, I found the defective light on the upper landing and was able to fix it. While I was able to reach the back with my soldering iron, I added a couple of new lamps to the system. In my electrics drawer I found the table lamp with the two hearts. I'm not sure where I got this from, but it was a cheap light which I bought online I think. It fits perfectly in my Arts & Crafts room with the heart shapes reflected in the chair backs and the shape of the foot of the lamp reflected in the little Moroccan table.

 I still have to remove the white sticker pad underneath the lamp, I don't like those at all.

 In the kitchen I finally plugged in the small refrigerator I made ten years ago, it still works! So that is now ready for use.

 Looks good! At last we can see what's in the fridge at night too.

 There is not much in the fridge. I think a food shopping trip is in order.

 Ah, there's the basket with groceries. Some white wine and...hang on, what's going on there?

 It's that rat again! The one who stole my radishes in the garden. And now he's got a sausage! Cheeky little bugger. I think I need another cat!
