studio

 Because a certain amount of money had been taken in, a sort of a tip for work done, celebrate by going to the Thai place. There was a young man there with his mother. He let her run around to get his drinks. He must have been eighteen. He played with his phone without end, and ignored her, except for complaining about the brand of the drink.

He was a young man from Turkey.

Went for a cup of coffee with the son. That was pleasant, that was earlier in the day.

Later in the afternoon, start to mill the plaster from the wall with a power tool. It is hard work, the machine is heavy, but the wall is milled down to the bare plaster within a few hours. The suction system blocks once and the room is instantly filled with a dense cloud of dust.

There is a large bucket filled with fifty kilos of powdered wall coating after the floor has been swept and vacuumed.

That job is done.

Enjoy a beer in what may become a studio.
