Stuff and nonsense

I appear to have hired two plasterers to do the smallest bedroom ceiling (8'x10'?) a week from today, for £110. Hurrah! Now let's see if they're any good and turn up on time etc...

After the thought (I was just very glad to have someone turn up) I realise I probably should have haggled on the price. But doing this room is the cornerstone of the rest of the work, so I'll just get it done and worry about pricing for the rest of the work down the line. Perhaps I'll actually get several quotes etc. next time.

Awww it's a shame my parents don't live round here. Since he retired my Dad does painting and wall papering and decorating, plastering etc.. he's cheaper than builders and does IMNSHO a very professional job. Plus for some strange reason, despite having very little in common. I think you guys'd get on. Having had this thought i had to blog it as i now have a strange mental image of you two having tea and discussing coving.
