My House Is Sweating

While I was away having a great great time over the weekend (more about that soon...) the landlady brought a plasterer round to sort out the walls. It's amazing. The Artex (or however you spell it) has GONE. No more drunken or carrying incidents where you brush against the wall and draw blood. Instead, I have a very dark and very brown hallway (it's not very nice, believe me.). The plaster goes on wet, so as it dries, as I have just discovered, all that water has to go somewhere. My front door was literally dripping - I mean, it was truly disgusting - this morning. My house smells of milky tea (yuk!). So now I'm going to have to freeze my arse off with the windows, doors etc open to let some of this excess moisture escape out of the house...
And my hallway is almost inevitably going to be brown until I leave. Nice.

Maybe plaster is the new artex!
