So I did, in the last two days my house has been undergoing a transformation. I got my dad up here to give advice and he made Dave go up the ladder - Dave doesn't like the ladder (borrowed from a neighbour) but he is learning and was up and down it today like a mad thing.
I know it is boring for everyone else but the things that have happened so far are...
Cleared gutters (very useful cos of persistent flooding)
Cleaned bedroom window (first time since buying house)
Cleaned downstairs window and door (made it look just like new)
Mowed the grass and swept the patio (even got the edge tidied)
Top board under the gutters sanded and undercoated (very high)
Windows sanded and undercoated (especially the frames!)
Filled the door and window frame (which is fun)
Used car filler on wooden down thing and the wrong type of polyfiller (happily I went back to B&Q to buy the right stuff and less happily came home and realised I had bought the wrong stuff)
Undercoated some lower paintwork after the sanding process.
Tomorrow brings the joy of gloss.
First thing though I have to go to school and spent my evening marking coursework in preparation for that.
(I know this is a v boring entry - but humour me)
