LIVING ROOM

The first floor warner flats traditionally have lovely large, spacious living rooms. Sadly, the owners before us had put up a stud wall, to half the size, and to make a third box room. We decided to get rid of this and bring the room back to its full potential!

I had visions of taking a sledge hammer to the wall, but Paul's Dad told me this was ridiculous, and messy and there is indeed a tidy way (boring way) of removing a stud wall. It involved punching lots of holes in a line, to create a cut out, then hammering in the crowbar between the holes to actually cut it out. I was good at this. Precision is my forte. Once removed neatly, the pieces of plasterboard are stacked... NEATLY. Lovely.
