It's looking quite nice - first stage was to get the floor stripped.

Solihull Hardwood Floors came over to do my room, and the hall.  Really friendly guys, and whereas last time it kicked up a lot of dust, these guys were lovely and clean.  As you can see, they came out quite nicely.

* N.B. If anyone wants pictures of the hall floor, please contact me and I'll email you some samples.
