Never managed to paint that fast!
Must be like me, Spring clean and decorate in the Autumn because the Spring is too busy. Tiled, changed the plumbing and decorated in the toilet; painted the hall and stairs; added some more tiles and decorated the kitchen; projects so far - contemplating bathroom next!

I was just wondering when Seedling might put a reply on the forum again, it seems such a long time since we have had the pleasure of her wisdom. :)
