30.05.06 In General


Rob's taken up all the carpet and underlay on the stairs. It looks so much better and it should be easier to sweep now. I've removed all the wallpaper in the last bedroom and the polysterene backing in the walk in wardrobe. I've also removed the last bits of wallpaper, including the wonderful seagull wallpaper in the bathroom. The best bit was removing all the tiles in the bathroom. But I found that the plaster behind some of the tiles was like sand and just crumbled straight into the bath. Rob now has to re-plaster the bathroom and stair part and there's more lathe underneath it.A gas central heating man came today and he gave us some advice. he's a friend of the family. He sealed off the radiators. Some technical bloke stuff. This means that Rob can now remove all the radiators. He's going to put us in touch with a man who may be able to do the work for us.The roofer is as illusive as ever. He should have visited us today.
