Investigation reveals the answer

We are now nearly finished the latest work on the bedrooms in the hotel with two due to be completed tomorrow and only the carpets and furniture to be placed and one on the final stretch with a bit of painting and wallpaper to be hung. In effect it has been a quick and busy week with painters and joiners in all directions but we are nearly there and the result is already evident. again I was curing the designers who asked for a headboard to be moved a couple of inches across the wall and probably unsurprisingly- although annoyingly correct for me- it make s huge differnce to the look. What had always been a mistake we ignored has now been corrected and boy does it look better.

The upstairs in one of the rooms that had always felt a little under heated I had the opportunity to check behind the wall only to find out that insulation supposedly installed in the last refit had been omitted so we have today corrected the issue and already there is a marked difference in the temperature of the room- to the extent that the windows were all open to cool the workers down. It just goes to show that often the simplest answers are the easiset to find and only our stubbornness stops us form accepting them as I had always been assured the insulation had been used and a simple hole investigation would have settled the matter. anyway all fixed and no harm done.

Next  task , and at this point I must admit to being away in Edinburgh tomorrow -so no supervision- will be to get the 2 metre long sideboard through a turn in the corridor that will not allow it to be simply pushed- otherwise it will be a big external lift and in through the window!!  I think it best if i simply leave a list of tasks and hide it amongst the rest with a comment that all should be finished by the time I return!!
