Operation 'Bottomless Pit'

Four weeks of French polishing has transformed our stairs and landings from rustic-student dive to grown-up Georgian elegance.  We have made progress on Operation 'Bottomless Pit'!

I'm not generally one with much enthusiasm for home improvement, but I'm beginning to see how some people seem to spend a substantial amount of time and money renovating and updating their homes.  It's hard to tell whether I'm turning into one of these enthusiasts or loosing the plot from excessive inhalation of the polishing solvents, we have now committed to a further two weeks of work downstairs.  

Currently, I'm writing this in a flat with no internal doors and no downstairs flooring; I suspect it's the latter.

For the geeks out there, here's the journey of transformation so far - French polishing with elevator music.
