Good job there was no health and safety inspectors around watching me paint the high part of the bedroom wall today !! Two walls down and one smaller one to go. The one on the left where the door is still to be painted, but I am waiting for Nigel to rub down and paint the door first. You can see what I have painted is several shades lighter and we hope it will lighten the room.
