    What you having done cathy?
    Well we have the final room in our bungalow to do, the list of jobs i believe are :
    ceiling to come down
    beam to be replaced
    new ceiling boards to go up,
    wallpaper stripped
    walls and ceiling plastered
    new fire and fireplace
    chimney swept
    new skirting boards
    paint
    new carpet
    eventually new furniture - but i think this will have to wait
    oh electrics done.

    think that is it!

    :eek:oh my goodness! Thats a lot of big jobs! good luck with that and try not to get too down with the mess - it'll be worth it in the end.

    As you probably know, we've just had a kitchen extension - everybody kept saying it'll be worth it and after about the 100th person to say it I wanted to tell them to eff off!!! :rotfl::rotfl:
    But, it was worth it.

    Good luck with all the work.

    EXTRA GOOD LUCK EVERYONE FOR 2015. XXX

    the problem is that when we moved in every room needed doing, so it has been room by room and I have been dreading this room, last one, it is gonna be such a mess, every room will have to have boxes and furniture. It is going to depress me, so advance warning I may be extremely tearful at times, hate being in a mess!
    I am threatening to move into my mums for the worse of it, good job she is in america, couldnt live with her.
