...Pendants for the Kitchen & Dining
We had always planned to have pendant lights over the benchtop, and had the standard light fitting positioned over the end of the bench to allow us to change this out and add more pendants in after handover, but the dining area had always been a bit of an "unsure" area.
Browsing online last night I found some lights, and after some consultation with the husband, we decided to go ahead and order them. Due to the angled shape of the dining room, and the way the dining table will need to sit in that area, I was never 100% certain the position of the standard batten fitting shown on our electrical plan would be correct for the light to hang in the right position over a dining table once we get one in there.
So, now, we will take the lights to site and ask the electrician to install them for us while he is there instead of installing the batten fittings for us to change over later. This way, we can tape out the dining table position on the floor and check the light positioning before we have any holes cut in the ceiling and avoid the issue of potentially having to patch the ceiling. We were also unsure whether we would need 3 or 4 over the bench, and 1 or 2 over the dining table, so we have ordered 4 + 2 just to be safe.

In other news, the big tree has now been removed. Its actually a little sad to see it go, it was a beautiful tree, and its a real shame we had to lose it, but it was just in completely the wrong position. If we moved the house to keep it, the branches were so far spread that I'd be concerned in every big storm that one of the massive branches would come crashing down, so we made the decision that it had to go.
