Sitting Room Completed
One room down and this is the next one on the list, the sitting room. This is next to the Television room and we plan for this to be just an area to sit in and chat away from the television. This room was not in a bad state of repair or decoration, but as is typical the electrics needed a vast amount of sorting out to make it not only practical but also safe.

The channels for the new electrics had been dug some time earlier, but time constraints and other more important projects had to be done before we could consider making a start on this room.

There was already a light and two sockets but they were not the best. Whilst the ceiling light had 3 lights it was at best candle power, and the electrical circuits had a happy knack of just switching off if you plugged too much into them. We also had to route the cable for the sky in through this room, so there were quite a few channels to fill and a lot of wires to fill the channels.





A good deal of sanding down and it was starting to look the business. Word of advice, even if it sounds like common sense, to most. Always wear a mask as the dust created was something else and got everywhere.




We realised when removing the cabling for this socket that it has been working on the equivalent of bell wire or speaker wire, just really glad we did not use any of the sockets




Next up.......Nope not the pan hanger as I have a set back with that....lol Next up Work on the roof starts......whoo hoo!
