Hi Bigbird,

Quite an improvement!

Mine still looks like a shed inside...... and outside......... - don't you just hate people who actually get on with things?

I know I shouldn't ask and I am sure that I am going to reget it, but here goes..... What are those big pink knobs for?

Ah, the pink knobs...different aren't they... They look very different now...

I fibreglassed them onto the walls, because I had no way to attach curtain poles/wires. they now have tiny holes drilled into the sides of them and wires attached top and bottom, with fitted lace curtains (I'm going for an old 'winchester' style look). I have also leaded the side windows and the rear one has her name, also leaded 'matilda', just got to replace the rubber in the front door and lead that as well.

Honestly, I think this has been a labour of both love and hate. I bought all the stuff to do it, and I really think that if I had been bothered to take my time and work on her all the hours that god sends, then she would have looked fabulous. As it is, I now look at her and think..yep that's another job done...'it'll do', which wasn't exactly the right attitude.... but, there has been so much that I really can't face anymore!!! Yours, desperate...he he..
