Orange... or not !

I'm sure you are all waiting with bated breath for the outcome of the experiment in redecorating the kitchen in shades of yellow and orange.

The answer is that it ranks alongside dinosaurs, DeLorean cars, the Sinclair C5, and Betamax videos as among the top failed experiments of all time.

The yellow was approved by the powers that be (i.e. She-who-must-be-obeyed aka Partner-who-lovess-tea). It turned out that Lemon Ice was identical to the previous wall covering - Banana Dream. The orange was not approved of - either by me or Jo! Total disaster.

So it is back to the drawing board. We have a newly painted ceiling (white) and walls (yellow) and parts of the woodwork (yucky salmony orange) but we have to re-think the latter and the tiles. The biggest consolation for me is that in the process all the units have been emptied and moved so at least everywhere is clean and our attempts to grow penicillin have been stopped.

Progress - or lack thereof - will be reported anon....
