Golden Week - big wastewater drainage cleaning!

Saturday May 7th was big wastewater drainage day in Futtsu. The city supplied hemp bags for the mud. It was an experience I did not want to have missed. There was about 10 cm of mud on the bottom of the drainage.  Our friendly neighbor kindly introduced me to the efficient technique.  In the end 6 hemp bags were full.  What else happened during this pleasant Golden Week holiday with great weather and also a bit of wind :) We did some work in the house and added some wooden boards to the wash basin and kitchen cabinets.  We used the same panels as was used by our 大工さん which turned out to be the cheapest and most easy one to process.

Futtsu BBQ

 What is new this week. We started the water contract which was a pretty easy task, finished with just one phone call to the city and the water was available the next day (see information at the end).

The tiling of the bathroom was almost done. The tiles turned out to fit quite well, however they turned out much darker then I expected. Something to look after when closing tiles. I am glad I did not chose darker tiles. The lighting in the catalogues is normally not comparable to the real situation. 





As I suspected in an earlier blog the communication of the wall paper through iMessage is not really a secure system. The wall paper in the living room and dining room turned out different then requested but still a good choice. The green wall paper at the veranda door turned out particularly good. 

The ceiling was supposed to be white like the kitchen:

Kitchen well done:



The soft tiles and table in the wash basin turned out well. We will add another rack on both sides.  

... but the main purpose of today's visit was the farewell BBQ for Inoue san who will go back to Malaysia till the end of the year. He was a great help to the project and inspiriting teacher. Thank you!
