I had a late start today because I had to pick up yet more stuff that I found I needed from Brico Depot. However, before I went I checked on the angle joint in the worktop that I glued yesterday.<\/p>\n

It’s not perfect but I hope that it will stand the test of time when the kitchen gets into use. The main job today was screwing the worktop down, starting with the long joined length. The next piece that I fitted was the length over the dishwasher and here’s a shot of the join between it and the long length. It’s much neater and far less of a germ and dirt trap than the joins I had in the kitchen of my old house.<\/p>\n
