Painter found

Today I set dad to work with a paintbrush. The master bedroom is being redecorated, and the first thing was to trim the carpet where it curled up against the skirting. Then we had to paint the skirtings, windowsill, doors and pelmets to get rid of the last of the “government green”, and it’s now a fresh white. Unfortunately this now highlights how dirty the walls are, but repainting that will wait for another day or month. It took us most of the day to do all the coats of paint, but it’s a relief to have it done. One can’t really have three different tones of green in a room, somehow it’s not too pleasing.
