Not at the end of the tunnel, rather the lights that we bought today and installed in the living area. Not being quite sure whether they would work (everything is of course in Japanese) we only bought one fitting and three lights. But they do work, so tomorrow night it will be another trip to the shop to get another one of the same.

Installation is another story. Not because it is technically difficult, but because we do not have anything here to stand on. Other than each other. Andrew tried very hard to get Sonia to perch on his shoulders, but as she is not a bird this proved rather difficult. In the end we reversed roles and Andrew sat on Sonia's shoulders.....she tried to remember not to tickle his knees!

Anyway, said lights are up and we are one step closer to having a home rather than a house.
