Light At The End Of The Tunnel - Sunday .23.5.10
Today is a red letter day in my tiny world of plaster boarding!!!!
I'm finishing this bit of the task. I'll still have half the room to insulate, but, happily, I can't reach those bits of the room yet. Thank goodness.
MeWally deviated from the norm and went APLUMBING. The small, electric shower went belly up. After a mere 7 years, it's safety valve wouldn't reset, despite a good clean out. A plastic component had split. It would work, but for how long, and how safely?
This one was taken off the wall.
HE BOUGHT A NEW ONE
ASSEMBLED HIS TOOLS
And fitted the NEW SHOWER, OOOO!
Mean while I set about making a couple of templates for the fiddly shapes of the loft walls. Later in the project I'll have to use these shapes again.
I backed the paper with cardboard.
Cutting plasterboard can be horribly messy.
At last, after banging in 28 nails today, the five 8x4 sheets of plasterboard are down to this little pile of, mostly, rubbish: YIPPEE!!!!
Already our bedroom feels warmer. Could it be the weather, or the insulation!?
