The Workmen!
We are on to the last room in the house and I have two fabulously ripped workmen in to get it finished.
OK, they are two cute boys I roped in from the street. OK, OK, they are my son and his mate (the one who wrote of his car by driving it into a roof - its possible, trust me!)
So, these two have been working on the room all afternoon, beers in hand, and a few games of World of Warcraft to fill in the drying time. We should have the room done tonight, with just the trim left for me to finish over the next couple of days.
I cant wait to get it set up as an office for 4fthawaiian so he can be happier at work. At the moment he is stuck in the bedroom all day and night. Not good for the morale.
The colour you see around the edges is a deep slate blue, this is currently being filled in :). We did another room the same colour, and it looks amazing.
Hopefully, the house will be on the market next week! WOO HOO!
Oh, please note the fabulous yellow scaffold in the background. We were going to hire scaffolding when we started painting as the ceilings are so high, however decided to buy one as we needed it for such a long time. It’s been the best investment we ever made! TIP: if you are doing a lot of renovations, invest in a scaffold!
LIVE UPDATE! 10:00pm
1st coat is on and waiting to dry, so more World of Warcraft and more beer!

At the low low price we got that scaffold at, it's been more than worth it!
And, you're too kind my love
At least once the room's done I'll get to see TWO rooms a day in the house! I just hope there's room to get through the door in that room, as thick as the paint's going on

Yeah, well, you can't have everything. I'm pathetically grateful!

Looks amazing. You have been working hard.
