There was this awful shelf in the corner that has simply been a pain to manoeuvre around (mainly due to our insistence on keeping our too-big-for-this-tiny-space dining table). I had taken a halfhearted stab at ripping it out before we moved in but the thing was solidly built into the wall and floor.

We have a new dining bench coming soon so it was finally time to rip the sucker out and get on with flooring and plastering the dining room. Let’s just not pay too much attention to the mold inside the ceiling tiles. ??
