The ceiling now has a full coat of white matt paint. At least one more coat will be required. Externally, the grey undercoat has been largely replaced by a first coat of green gloss. It really looks nice and is all the better for not having masking tape left on the windows... The paint was chosen by ladies on the Scout executive and was heavily influenced by village green having been used on the hall in the past.
We expect the decoration team to be with us until close of play on Thursday of this week. Tomorrows tasks are subject to weather, but are; second coat ceiling, first coat magnolia on the walls, complete external painting.
For me, I am going to have to take a flyer and order the electrical supply, as the lead time is six weeks. The backdrop to this is; if the Scout Group has property on a lease, we have to move to Registered Charity status. Enquiries are outstanding with the Scout association. Trouble is the club solicitor thinks this has to happen before the lease is signed and this isnt the case (in law or in Scout rules). I ideally need a lease to be in play prior to committing to the electric supply. Scout rules say we shouldnt commit large sums prior to having a lease. Since all this is chicken and egg, I will go on personal risk and order the supply anyway.
