"I enjoy passing time in my house. I'll get up, head out on the terrace, think about what to do, fool around oiling the floorboards or hanging pictures askew." Daniel Bruhl

The corridor from the kitchen to the hall was insulated

and  I ran some more boards

through the wood thicknesser which left them looking like this

Then it was just a matter of cutting them to size and fixing them to the battens - not as easy as it sounds in an area where the walls aren't straight and there aren't too many right angles

but eventually...

Tomorrow - the ceiling!
