Been quite busy instead of lounging around today. I would like to decorate the kitchen, but first I had to determine if the shower was leaking from the bathroom above. So I had to bash two holes in the kitchen ceiling and expose all the gubbins underneath. It has been damp, you can see a touch of rust on some nails and some discoloured plasterboard, but a fair time ago and all dry now - good news.
Now I have to repair or get someone in to do the job - I hate and bodge DIY, but it shouldn't be expensive. The next phase is the paintwork but that's easy, the kitchen walls are all cupboards and tiles and I can reach virtually all of the ceiling from the floor as it's low. Then..I need to rout out the silicone seal round the shower screen and reseal it, because it looks a bit dodgy and madam is reminding me of it. That's a messy slow job using a silicone eater jelly and a Stanley knife and it must stay dry and then the shower can't be used for a day or two. Oh well down to the children's houses for a washup.
