It's a piece of piss to install fella, I did upstairs and downstairs which cost me around £100-130 to do.

Got a few pics of the plastering in progress, Waiting for them to upload as my connection is seriously slow atm.

In the next few days we'll be plasterboarding the ceiling in the hall and landing ready for skimming the weekend after next. Also the loft hatch will be moved along the landing and made bigger.

I've tidied the front garden up a bit and chucked the crap that was under the trees like a couple of tyres etc.

Can't wait to gdet decorating then I know the dirty work is over for now

Thought i'd update today.

Living room is all painted now, Just need to touch in the lines a little.





Bedroom painted, Not my choice of colour. Just need to paper the feature wall.

Looks Yellow here, Is green like the above pic though. Think the crap energy bulb makes it look different.


Started the hall stairs and landing, Will be finished this week.

Same here!

I ended up with a green bedroom! Quite like it though, gone for a pale green on 3 walls and a darker green on the main wall.

So I'm not the only one who has a mrs with quirky tastes then
She's gone for the green you see on 3 walls and paper on the main wall. Hoping it looks better with everything done.

Quick update. Can't upload many pics as I have no BB yet. We moved in on the 23rd and had a nice quiet Christmas together on our new home. There's still plenty to do on the house but it's cosy now. Yesterday we put a deposit on this little lady and pick her up on Monday.

It's a staffy mate. Has brindle in her face. Me and the missus thought she looks like a rotty in the face. Chubby little thing. We went and bought a bed and a few toys for her.

This is my 5th staffy, the missus wanted a german shepherd but I managed to persuade her. Were both like big kids waiting to pick her up. Got to wait until Monday now.

I didn't spot that until I posted the pic and knew someone would spot it. I'm in the middle of smoothing the groove out of it for when I getting the car resprayed.
