The lights are in

Bit of a furious day really. I was in at 6:00am painting in around the ceilings and the corners of the rooms, trying to get that all done before they start to urethane the floor (I don't want to - and probably cant -  put trestles up on a newly finished floor). I managed to get the LHS of the house completed by stumps. 

Then the sparky turned up with our new Cree LED lighting and installed all of that, put new ones in the kitchen and the room with a new ceiling, as well as fitting 5 new 240 volt smoke alarms . He will be back to install a couple of exhaust fan/lamp heatyers in the bathrroms for us too. Man what a change that has been, and indeed I knew that it would open the whole place up. It has, and it looks great too. 






I think you need to be there to 
believe the difference.....



...but this is LHS halogen, and RHS LED!

Dramatic. Then we had Steve, our carpenter, cutting up skirting to tidy up the bedrooms where there was none after removal of the sinks and built in cupboards. To top it off, they were sanding floors as well, so it really did sound like a building site. Today there was a lot of noise, an a lot of action. Long may that continue. And such a great team of workers too, they all work their butts off. I am going to paint all through the weekend, and take time off when they urethane the floors.
