The first of the Tudor arches was formed today by joiner chap with minimum effort and to maximum effect. Once the arch is plastered in and I have cast off and inserted plaster spandrels (job to do number 3265 I think!) The upper hall and landing will be finished which is somewhat of a relief, as family OTW have to move into the house in 3 weeks and I really need to provide a bathroom and temporary kitchen or my growing tribe of daughters/mini terrorists will make their disapproval rather vocal.

Very neat job this Thudders!
Vocal daughters are probably the best incentive to get things moving pretty quickly...
Did you know a spandrel is also the name for that annoying space under the stairs,sometimes referred to as 'the chokey' by our star spangled cousins.It is also a good place to deposit vocal offspring of the female variety.And spouses for that matter!!
That looks great, wish I could see all your hardwork inperson.
Went past coming home from the port,I see you are now working Sunday overtime,nice job,even that coving looks superb,I see how accidents happen leaving a lecky drill on the edge of the scaffolding,good job your guys and gals wear hardhats innit.
Glad you've got the right tools for that.
Anon...we have rather thick heads.
