Second wind...ow

Second coat of Satinwood on the second window today, followed by a complete round of skirting board and door frame. The end is in sight (for this room at least).

After a short break for lunch I busied myself for the rest of the afternoon doing the odd tidying up jobs that always get left for last. Screwing the light fittings back up, refitting a small piece of floor board damaged when the new radiators were fitted, refixing the brasses to the sash windows and making sure there aren't any creaking floorboards.

Tomorrow I'll refit the burglar alarm sensor that was ripped out when the plaster fell off the wall under my window, and fix the box for the telephone point, as well as putting the final touches on the rails of the second window that carry brass (the middle two rails where the two halves of the catch are fixed, and the bottom rail where the lifters are fitted).

Pretty pleased with progress today. I'll be able to book the carpet fitters on Monday.
