    Another weekend down; another room painted and another room removed of wallpaper.

    Best $80 I've spent recently was on a wallpaper steamer off Gumtree.

    Now, paint the spare room, strip the wallpaper off the study and paint the study. The house is (actually, quite quickly) getting there...

    Congrats dude. It's a great feeling having a vision for your house come together. Just hopefully your budget holds together. That was the problem I had.

    Our current budget is in a per 15L of paint status. We're not doing anything major in the short term and the biggest medium term job is some painting, rejigging the garden, and some flooring to replace the 45 year old carpets.

    That and pollyfiller for where all the old curtains were originally mounted. :P
