    Wall is painted and looks much better.  I think we're going to get away with one coat, but will see what it looks like in the morning.  The paint was lovely and thick, so has covered it well.

    I've done 22 listings today, so hopefully we'll get some sales.

    DH has taken both sofas to the tip, so the new ones had better arrive tomorrow!

    I'm still impressed at your PADs!

    I don't mind magnolia, it's quite inoffensive even if it does mark ridiculously easily.

    It's fine, but our whole house was magnolia and it got a bit boring.  I like a bit of colour.  The front room is north facing and can be quite dark, so I'm not sure we'll ever have it any other colour.  It does look much better now though freshening up that wall, so maybe I hate it less now :D
