Well – the carpenters have been in for a couple of days and are making great progress. 

The downstairs bedroom now has a door that will actually shut (!) and a much smaller built in cupboard to hide the gas meter. 

The cupboard under the stairs swings and shuts (rather than having to be lifted into place).

We have new, much more modern glass panels above the doors upstairs and at last, the cupboard in the nursery is shelved and can actually be used!

I think they’ll be done on Tuesday, at which point the decorator moves in to make things look pretty!
