Dining Room Watch: Day One...

The decorator and his mate put in a good day's work (and, hopefully, have also sorted out a separate guttering issue for us) - mainly filling in holes (left by the previous residents' music system speakers, picture hooks etc), sanding things down and a bit of undercoating.

The original estimate was "should be finished by Tuesday, maybe Wednesday morning", but with the best will in the world I can't see the whole job being wrapped up by tomorrow evening.
