Ahhh....Sunday again, time for a lie-in....like every one of the last six or is it seven days? After breakfasting on foie gras, quails eggs and Russian caviar, washed down with some freshly squeezed grapefruit juice, we were ready for action.
After very lightly sanding the part-varnished hardwood with some 400 grit paper, we laid down the final polyurethane coat and called it done. We can walk on it properly in 72 hours, which will be Wednesday morning.

I also finished up the new recessed lighting in the second part of the hallway...
I put three lights where we used to have only one, and I put two more in the entrance hallway - we lost our original light when we put in the skylight.
By then it was time to pop the hinge pins back in on the entry door for the final time:
