31 July 2018
Just making it into July, we managed a surprise finish of the utility room ceiling boards. After Rowan helped fit the two difficult centre ones (the room is a slight parallelogram), Dave and I measured for the remaining spaces.
A friend of Rowan and Paris's, Naomi (not the other Naomi) offered to help, and came on Monday evening to spend a couple of hours painting the utility boards. We were measuring and cutting the third while she was painting the first two, so it all went very quickly.
Then on Tuesday, while waiting for the Music Room wood delivery, we second-coated and fitted the boards. A bit of filler, and whoops - job done!

One of the boards painted by Naomi, and the Music Room door screw holes filled
The other two boards, second coated by Dave
While I got on with the insulation
All finished - photographed after dark. The back right hand panel is removable so we can feed new wires through the wall if we need to. (For example, to fit an electric car charging point!)
And, just after midnight, the first oyster mushrooms from the box we opened 4 days ago are starting to pop out - how exciting!
