Default Check out me living room AARRGHHH

Got me work cut out today

didnt think the flooring would be going down for a week or so, but just had a call off me mate saying its either going down tomorrow or wont be for a good month or so.

so gotta sand/paint/clear the room properly ready for tomorrow morning






the missus HATES wires, and because I spent nearly £1500 on my dolby, i wasnt having the speakers behind the settee lol so had to dig 2 channels in wall, run cables down, filler over and now just gotta give a couple of coats of paint



speaker cables then run under floorboards to come out behind back of TV



see above: wireless understandably a necessity



£350 quids worth of laminate hardwoood flooring, kept safely in the downstairs bog



and the spare room at the moment, all stuff we've bought from IKEA including the mahoosive picture

well, hopefully, most things will be finished tomorrow, just need to order curtains and go pick up a couple of 2 seaters from somewhere and get a decent TV stand for the widescreen.

still, its been cool playing on me ps2 in bed



will get some pics when its all done for anyone who's thinking about fitting laminate.
