I managed to find somebody who could do plastering and whatsmore could
actually come immediately!!!! (A very rare breed!) As promised, he
turned up promptly on Tuesday morning to take a look at what needed
doing, went off got the materials and got started. As it turned out the
areas under the Breakfast Room windows weren't as bad as in the sitting
room!!

While he was here I decided to ask if he could do some tongue and
groove panneling in the kitchen, something I've been wanting for a
while The joiner who I'd been waiting for since before Christmas to come
and finish off some jobs and give me a quote for doing the panneling,
announced when he finally came on Monday that he didn't want the job
anymore!!! If only he could have told me that back in December. I was to
say the least annoyed. Anyway Ian has also made a start on that job too
but was thwarted on Thursday when the wood wasn't delivered. I was at a workshop on Thursday so on Friday it was all go to get the wallpapering done before the guests' arrival.
