Update on pub renovation

The pub renovation job is going well. I met with the Builder today to discus my ideas and show him the room plans I have designed. They are due to start ripping out the old rooms in a few weeks and then the fun starts! We are now designing 6 rooms rather than 5 as apparently if you have 6 rooms or more then you can class yourself as a hotel. This in turn means you can be listed in all the good hotel guides and hopefully gain star ratings.

Reader question: Can you find me an alternative wallpaper?

I recently came across the Farrow and Ball paper, called Ranelagh, its a diamond trellis, in a metallic, its colourway number BP 1806. I received a sample and love the paper, its neutral and yet adds great warmth, I want to use it for the back wall of a hall over 2 floors.
