Oh dear, why did we start the 'doing up the bedroom' process?! After getting rid of the monster wardrobe we spent the weekend shuffling furniture /wardrobe contents around and trying to strip a border which was stuck firmly to the wall (DH was muttering about PVA glue) Painter is now having to sand/skim and vast clouds of white dust are emanating from the window. He says it will now take two days instead of one. Bed is piled high with things, whole house has bits of bedroom furniture scattered throughout and now I don't know where we're going to sleep tonight! Can't even get blow up bed out of cupboard without moving furniture! Help!!

Why indeed? You only sleep in there, so have your eyes shut most of the time! wink

Can you go away for a couple of days?

It's a bit like childbirth really, don't you think. The horrible memory fades and lo and behold you do it again! grin

Lol Mishap! Should have left well alone! Unfortunately can't get away...dh working and I have things on. On the plus side we are going away on Friday for 2 nights for DGS's 2nd birthday celebrations. I will just have to focus on that. Ah well, could be the sofa tonight then!

This is positively the last birth of a new room Kitty unless, as Mishap suggests, we can go away!
