So near!

With a long bank holiday weekend, and having Friday off normal work too, we should break the back of the beast! The kitchen is done, bar sealant around the worktops and re-grouting the tiled floor. The lounge has been re-painted and the skirts just need final gloss coats, but they won't be fitted till the wooden floor is down. Craig is collecting that today so fingers crossed we'll get it down tomorrow??

Craig has been wrestling with the bathroom all week, as he's had to cut new waste holes in the wall, fitted the bath, and is tiling the floor this morning. Once that has set (48hours) he can fit the basin and loo.....so by Monday????

I'll be painting. The hallway needs a final coat of emulsion and the bedroom walls need touching up. The doors upstairs need a final glossing, but with the superb technique of using a small roller, it is so much quicker and a lovely finish too!!! I'm learning so much, I can now be really, really dull about gloss techniques!!

Craig will need to shave a bit off some of the upstairs doors as they have expanded since they were fitted and no longer close.

We really want the inside to be done by Monday night, so we can concentrate on the garden the next weekened.......will the weather still be nice??

Had a visit from another interested party this week, who knocked on the door and came for a look round. Another property up the road has now sold too, in about 2 weeks, so there is movement in the street...all keeps us going!!
