Not had a chance to do anything during the week, but yesterday we spent the day Sanding all the plastered surfaces in the lounge. Took a fair while (we finished about 8:30pm), but it means we can wipe down the dust and start painting today .... yay :)
According to the schedule we set ourselves, we wanted the painting finished by next weekend. Looks like we might just make it, assuming we can get the base coats on today and do the top coats on Friday.
