Mmmm you girls have turned me off doing them lol. Sounds alot harder then I expected althought I knew I couldn't get a professional looking job. The house is an old farm house. Its actually two houses joined together. The main house only has carpet in the living room which is huge (about the side of 2 large lounge rooms) DH plans on reducing the size by adding in a hall way and another bedroom so the lounge room will only be half the size it currently is. Thats the room I want to polish the floorboards. There is vinyl in 2bedrooms which we want to carpet and floor boards in another 2 bedrooms. Maybe I'll just wait for the tennant to move out before I decide exactly what to do.
