Paintin'
Im going to take some of these wallpapers and set up a market stall down at Swinton precinct doing my new 'Urban ultra modern temporary tattoos'... available in the classic Dulux colours of Morning Light and Timeless. Do you think they will catch on? 
Painted most of the day... Ceiling has had its first coat of Timeless rich matt emulsion and then started on the walls. This was chosen to be Morning Light of the Light and Space paint range, which is supposed to be twice as reflective to brighten the room. Its tough going though as it is a bobbly wallpaper so requires lots of pressure on the roller to get into all the nooks... makes my puny arms ache... so anyway... with all the edging that has to be done to complete the task I only got half way round the room, but the good news is that the walls around the window have their first coat. Only two pretty simple walls left to do... so all is good.
Just made it to the corner by tea time so a good point to stop. The walls will have a couple of days to dry as I am off to York for the Society for General Microbiology Annual Conference. Should be a laugh...not! Will be good to keep my hand in, and get my brain back into a more general science gear after being so concenrated on one thing for the last 3 years... scary!

Very good decorating Timbo. I think we must have it in our blood. Can't wait to see it all finished it's going to look great.
Well I dont think Im up to "Dad" or "Matt" standard yet but Im only in my first real project and year of decorating school. Many many more jobs and learning to do in this house... and in my run down house that I am going to buy to renovate.... well thats the plan anyway.
