We've been round to a neighbour and taken away three of his doors.
By arrangement, of course, they were spares from when he had the house divided into flats. Now, we have bedroom and bathroom and guest room doors for upstairs.
Then we started some insulation and plaster boarding, and I've been demonstrating my total inability to hit a nail straight, or hold a drill up higher than my shoulders.
Just stopped for
and a bun.

Got the other side insulated and plaster boarded, and we're both shattered now. It's hard work, working above your head the whole time. At least this side I found I could support the board hands-free by standing up the ladder and jamming my head against it! Although when NT was nailing it up, it felt a bit like
