stable painting

it hadn't been done for many year - well before the first time i was in that particular stable, which was end 2005 - and had been jet washed at least twice, losing a lot of the cheap paint that had been there - so you can imagine, it was not good, and dingy. it now looks very smart, black the bottom half and white the top (but, to be fair, not VERY high as i can't reach high had no ladders and that leaning to look up is very bad for the neck! but hugely improved on what it was before, looks clean and tidy and should last me a while!

rubber mats down - shan't put bedding on top until the paint has dried. i thought i needed one new mat, in fact i need 2! that's what happens when you move from a large stable to a small, mats get cut up. not good. but we've got it reasonable until i can get some new.

some stuff put away, but by then i was knackered.

partner came home lunchtime from her night away, and was VERY unhappy about the computer - she had to sit and repeat a load of work work she'd done yesterday, but not emailed out so it is sitting on the probably deceased pc.

and i cannot get email to work on either thunderbird or windows mail. it won't recognise the password, but i know the password is correct, as i went on to the webmail service and that uses the same password! ggrrhh. so if we do something on the laptop that has to be emailed out, it then had to be dropped onto either my tablet or my phone, and emailed out using gmail. drat.
