Repainting

[Hickson]

Some of you might remember how I managed to accidentally set my house on fire a couple of months back (for those that don't, read all about it and see the pics on http://www.aussiepythons.com/index....&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=universal ).

This week the painters came to finally repaint the place. It's taking all week, and I have to move furniture around the house to accomodate the workmen.

Today they are painting the reptile room, the corridor, the kitchen, dining room, and the master bedroom. So I have everything shoved into the second bedroom (with my computer) and the living room. Took some pics I thought some people might be interested in seeing.

As a single guy I'm usually a little messy, but not this bad.

I plan on watching some TV this evening too. My view appears to be obstructed.

The second bedroom. Currently crammed into the small space between the computer and the chest of drawers.

Tonight, after the paint has dried, I can move some stuff back into the other rooms. The second bedroom is being painted tomorrow, but the real bugger will be the living room on Friday. Will take me a couple of hours just to move all my books!

Then I've got the weekend to try and recover from a week of breathing paint fumes.

Moral of the Story: Do NOT set fire to your enclosures.

Hey Hix,
I notice that although the room is messy, you can always see the fire exstinguisher! lol! wise move!

What lengths some people go to to get the landlord to redecorate for them! LOL!

Hix, good painters move the furniture themselves!!

I suppose it all comes back to Gaffa Tape being like the force. You certainly experienced it's dark side Hixy

It's not just furniture, it's all the little things besides. They'll move the bookcase but not the books. If you know what I mean. Besides, it takes me a couple of hours to move everything out and then a couple more to move it back, they don't have time for that. And also, I need to know where certain important things are, so it helps if I move it all.

First day of Spring, how appropriate.

Is that fire extinguisher still usable though? If dcp sits too long it compacts and becomes useless. Just some useless info i thought i'd share.

Awww Come on Hixy!!! That's how your place normally looks doesn't it!!! Don't use a fire as an excuse, we understand! :wink:

Considering I bought the extinguisher less than 8 weeks ago, I'd be pretty pi$$ed off it was useless already. It does have a warranty on it - I just can't get to it at present to see if the warranty is valid for two months.
