living on the ceiling

The ceilings are going in!  No 1's room is complete and as of this afternoon, the hallway, our bedroom and the dining all have ceilings too.  There was a scary moment with the panel lifter we hired from K-K-Kennards- it was holding aloft a 5.4m sheet of 13mm plasterbaord, with one guy standing underneath winding the handle when the handle broke off and the whole thing came crashing down.  We were incredibly lucky that no one was hurt.  If our guy had had his head in a slightly different position, he would have been very seriously injured.
In happier times - before the accident.

No. 1's room with ceiling

We found a fabulous plasterer in the local paper, lots of experience, very fast and about half the price of anyone else.  Would love to pass on his number to anyone who might need one.  On that note, also found a great plumber and electrician - fast, RELIABLE and not too expensive.

Hopefully we'll have some cornices in by Monday!
