If you are getting bored with this blog, you have my deepest sympathies. I am getting bored with the blog too. "Here's a room with plasterboard.... here it is with skim on top of the plasterboard..... and, ooh look, here it is with cream paint on top of the skim." Multiply by the number of rooms and the reader will be falling off his perch with boredom.

So you're not going to get more pictures of the inside till I have something more interesting to photograph. The short version of the news is that the plasterboarding is more or less done, and we have ordered 60 sheets too many so if anyone wants a bargain.. Lee the plasterer has sloped off to do someone else's house but is due back next week which will coincide with me having a few days off work to cover house and self in paint.

I ordered a plumbed-in sink so that I could wash brushes and rollers in a larger-than-caravan-size sink and this meant hiring a digger, and digging not only the trenches but also a manky great big soakaway (2.5 x 2.5 x 1m) into which we have slung all the half-bricks and lumps of concrete which have been lurking about in the corner of the garden since a year ago when we demolished the garage. So one or two interesting photos:
