Flat update

Well, I have seen the sanded floors and they look really nice. The only problem is when the removed the ugly faux brick thingy, it revealed a old fireplace which was bricked up. So, now we have some exposed wall timbers and bricks.... But, it also revealed a hidden Edinburgh press. That's a built in shelf that most older flats in Edinburgh have. It's really nice, but it was plastered over, so now it's exposed from waist level down. We'll have to brake through or cut out the top portion of the wall there to make use of it. But that will mean totally redoing the plastering or drywall on that whole wall to make it even.... urg! I'm sure that will be a good £1k or so! We didn't anticipate that, but in the end it will be a lot nicer. I'll call some people on Monday and have another week of quotes and workmen over at the flat. Urg! Oh well, the upside is that I didn't get the job I interviewed for, so there's no worry about finding a day care or juggling my time.
