Still waiting....

Nope, sorry to say that there is no nice picture of our new floors tonight. The contractors turned up, checked the floors, and they needed a tiny bit of leveling in the main walkway areas (around front and back doors), so they put down some concrete type stuff, then went away to let it dry. They'll be back tomorrow morning to start laying, and will finish off on Saturday.

Aside from the obvious disappointment in the fact that I have no floors to photograph, I'm not really that upset. It's better to have it done properly, and since DH is working through the weekend, we couldn't move until at least Monday anyway.

The rain is putting a damper on everything right now too. It's not good heavy tank filling rain, just continuous (all day without letup even for a few minutes!) dribbly rain. Enough to mess up the road again, nearly got bogged on the way in this afternoon, and to make everything muddy and miserable. We've also discovered that the pipe that we hit the other day seems to still have a leak, as it's hole filled up much more quickly than all the others. Can't do much about it till the rain stops though.
