Sounds like a good effort to me Rubi. Do you have a sponsorship link? ;-)

Ha Ha. I forgot to say I also moved a couple of lights (didn't really want them inside the shower). The most gruelling part was "when I hit the wall". It is about 2 1/2 feet thick and drilling a 16mm hole through it with my now "has seen better days" SDS drill took quite some effort.

Any donations can always be forwarded to me :)

But seriously - well done matey. I couldn't imagine running that far.

How's the body coping today Rubi, no aches or nasty blisters I hope? ;-)

My legs have been fine since I cracked out a 5k run this morning :-)

That's probably my mistake; I should have drilled a few 1/2" holes through some stud wall. I'm aching like an achy thing now. But 3hrs watching a Gospel choir this evening hasn't helped. It's just not possible to stay seated!
