Moving to the Old School, Areley Kings
(New Bandroom - October 2006)

Before the work Still before the work The kitchen
Sound absorption - carpet underlay - curtains - more underlay
cupboards need to be moved more stuff to move A donation from Brintons Carpets
"Let's all watch Rob & Roy at work" The carpet starts to go down Preparations begin
Boys decide what to do "3...2...1...it's gone! Magic" Careful trimming needing of the lovely carpet
More trimming "I've never layed carpet up a wall before!" A tasteful back wall gets carpeted!
Seamstress number 1 Seamstress number 2 Mind your fingers on the pins!
"They won't notice I'm holding the hammer upside down will they?" "Where's the spirit level?" Roland irons by thought alone!
What a guy!

Kate makes brews

"Where's mum & dad?"
  Ben likes to ROCK!!!  
Sparky Roy wants to go up in the world Standing around Nattering
Busy girls The odd pose crew
(No comment about Roland's hand gesture!"
First curtain goes up
- "Where's the hammer"
- "IN THE TOOL BOX!"
"I'll vacuum the wall in a bit" Roland isn't impressed
"Boys vacuuming!"
"...3...4...5...d'oh! 1..2..3.." "I'm impressed, Neil!" says Rob Curtains look better than the carpet
Last curtain to go up All curtains up! Playgroup stuff is moved back in
"Ta da!!" First practice People are clearly impressed!
   
  A happy building crew
