No pictures today. Kevin and Stan were here pretty much all day working on making good the plaster around the electrical sockets and on a crack at the junction of the old and the new. Slow work, let me tell you! Brendan had shown these to Kevin on Friday - basically, the plasterers had cut holes for the sockets, but these holes were too big, and no amount of patching properly addressed this problem. It looked worse after painting - not the end of the world for sockets that will be partially hidden by furniture, but it looked quite bumpy. Kevin seemed to be annoyed with himself for not having solved this earlier, so today, he was like a man with a mission, determined to get it sorted.
To be honest, I don't think it's made much of a difference. If anything, the crack looks worse. Stan's painting skills and paint brush are not up to a painter's standards - we'll need to get Mark the painter back in to sand the bumps and touch up the paint.
