Kitting out the kitchen

Having hung the plasterboard on the wall, we've put the window frames back in place. Then spent three days sanding the floor. It seems that the previous owners had at some time glued previous coverings to the planks, which is a shame because as you can see from the photos, the pine has come out almost white. We now need to varnish the floor, which will probably take the best part of a week to do the three layers.



As you can see, we've had the worktop for the kitchen delivered, but as the units aren't built yet, we've had to leave it on the floor in the dining room. Of course, it's not flexible, so we've had to put wedges underneath it where the dining room floor isn't flat. To try and keep it clean, we've put some plastic over the top and posted a sign reminding people not to walk on the plastic. The cat clearly needs to learn to read!

We've finally stumped up the cash and got someone in to plaster the very awkward corner in the ceiling of the nursery. More photos soon.
