Promised to sort the daughters new bedroom & games room before Christmas. Destroyed her bed, chucked a load of stuff out and as we've also decided to have a new sofa, took a saw to the old one. Whilst looking for some bits and bobs in the shed for laying a laminate floor, I decided as we'd be having a skip it would be a suitable time to clear out - no before pics, but here's the aftermath.
Then I laid a laminate floor - oh and priced a 20k job.

Tidy now - it was like bloody arachnaphobia in there though, fortunately they were all very docile *shudders*

Anyone seeing that lot will assume you've come home with lipstick in your collar and on you're missus has changed the locks, taken the scissors to all your ties and chuck all you're stuff out in the street 🙂
Not an uncommon scenario at Christmas (according to letting agents letting out studio flats to devorcees)
Ha
Unfortunately I didn't factor in that a skip lorry wont get down our road at the mo
Burn it!
Thats nothing. I've got an extension to paint (3 coats minimum on bare plaster), all the wood etc to do, external doors and because the extension looks nice and 'airy' in white we've decided to repaint the kitchen and dining room at the same time. Thats as well as tearing up the kitchen floor on Friday night ready for me to lay tiles over the weekend (something I've never done before).
Bitten off more than I can chew? Yeh... definitely!
Dear Davey boy, if you are going to tile floor there is a few things you need, good medical insurance to pay for the cartilage op that you will need after finishing floor, get good knee pads, a 6ft long level, lots of latex gloves as the tile cement can ruin your hands and you may ask how do i know this well, after i did out garden room floor 9m by 4m i needed the op and all the other bits i learnt as i did the floor
