I started painting the outside of the house on Monday. All the walls are finished with plaster and I'm painting them white (Dulux Weathershield). The sills and "reveals" around the window will be black. (Keeping it traditional) I like the clean plain look of black and white . I only got the front wall done - 2 coats. There's plenty to be done yet - but the weather as a bit damp for painting the last 2 days.
I did a bit of insulation in the loft space today - the glass wool type. It's a horrible job and I only stuck it for an hour or so. The fibres get into your skin and eyes and nose even with a mask and goggles. Hopefully a bit at a time will get it done in time for the cold weather...
The immersion was finally connected today - but we probably won't be using it much.
Still no gas hob connection - although we did find out that there is no leak in the pipe after all. The plumber checked the pressure and found that the gas fitter must have tested the wrong pipe - good news but still waiting for the gas fitter to come back . In the meantime making use of the solid fuel range for hob - might not need the gas as much?
