Constructing the library

19-20 October 2017

On Thursday, the plaster in the library had dried sufficiently to be whitewashed, so I put three coats on in a day, while also managing to get to the beach for Mum's swim.  On Friday, as well as helping Dave fix a gelcoat nick for Jonathan on a friend's boat, I also managed two coats of white paint on the library shelves. 


 Everything drying in the sun ...

 ... while Mum and I go for a swim

 The library - ready to be shelved

 The studio, needing to be cleared to be Richie's bedroom on Saturday ...

 ... with everything relocated to the first four library shelves, in the nick of time.

It's not very clear, but Dave and I fixed up some bamboo roller blinds from the ceiling in the studio, so that they make a guest room wall that can be lowered when needed.  I finished making up the bed with 20 minutes to spare before leaving for the airport - which was when Richie rang to say he'd missed his connecting flight in Dusseldorf ...
