Clearing out the front room

Our restumping was scheduled for today - 22 September 2009 - so it was time to get prepared. The first job was to get rid of the built-in wardrobe in the front room because the restumpers needed to pull-up the floorboards to get under the house.



It's easy when you have a good manager...



Not like that you fool!



We also tackled the wood panelling on the walls. The panelling was pretty ugly and thankfully came off really easily.



And finally we had a clear room ready for the restumpers to come in.




I'd been complaining about a stone in my shoe all day, and Lupin kindly sorted it out for me (do not try this at home)



Lupin did more than just supervise and clean my boots. Here is his greatest contribution.
