If plastering is the stage where a room turns its back on being a building site, then the first coat of paint is where it starts to look forward to being a room again. Back from yesterday's funeral, if we were to have any chance of staying on schedule with the kitchen then today was the day I had to start painting. And I did. An 8am start, a 15-minute break for breakfast on the hoof, I was finished by half past three.
Well, it's a big room, and the first coat always takes the longest. The plaster slurps up the paint as fast as I can apply it, and the entire area - walls AND ceiling - needs painting, so it takes a while.
Worth it though:
