Colour it

FINALLY, we’re on the right side of the winter solstice and by the end of this month we should see a little stretch of daylight.

Lovely though it is, doesn’t late winter light have an awful habit of showing up shabby paint work and faded colour schemes, especially after the Christmas decorations have come down?

Add in dust spewing turf fires and even the more contained solid fuel stoves and central heating radiators, and you have cobwebs growing like woolly stalactites from the ceiling, and the gleam taken off your freshly glossed woodwork. So colour charts to the ready folks: it’s time for the spring decorating project.
