More Progress

The painting has started with the kitchen, dinning room, sitting room and entry hall have now had at least 1 coat of paint.
What a change we are at last 'getting there', the No.1 bedroom and en suite will be finished plastering today, so it will be only one more bedroom and en suite to go.
The electrician is due today so we may have some light switches going by the end of the day.

Awake!

Last night, no, at 2.41am we were awoken in an adrenaline heart pumping second when the burglar alarm was activated!!!!!

Stumbled down the stairs, my eyesight is not great if I don't have my glasses and it took 2 attempts at hitting the correct code numbers, silence.................................... false alarm.

Now that I have now recovered after my interrupted sleep and had my breakfast, I called the alarm man, who suggested that our 'incident' may have been caused by a bug, or spider that likes living in the corners were the sensors are.
Yes there was, (est décédé) and have now sprayed huge amounts of bug repellent in and around all devices, if the spray didn't get them they will probably will have drowned.

Plastered

At last we are on the last stages of the completing the inside of the build.

Today I have been sanding smooth the drywall plastering and putting a sealing coat on the dinning room, so I have been alternatively been coated in fine plaster dust and paint spots.

Not an attractive sight, the fine coating of dust make me look like a very white old man!

It's very difficult to dodge the paint spay, when you are using an extension pole attached to a roller to reach the ceiling that's 3 metres away.

Oscar(dog) has managed to paint his tail as well as a number of large white spots on his coat, the black sets the white paint off very well.
