Room fixed (almost)

Well, the roof is sorted out and the wall plastered. The room already feels warmer because of the new insulation in that corner. The plaster needs to dry for a while and then the wall will need to be painted.

Finally got the Commodore stuff sent off. Listed some more stuff on Ebay, a Toshiba HX-10 MSX computer, an Acorn Atom and a Cambridge Z88. Not expecting to get much for them but it all helps and it's nice to reclaim the space. Still loads more to go yet.

Of the three SPs, I still couldn't get the backlit one to display, and the black frontlit one had a water damaged motherboard that worked but had issues. So I moved the good motherboard from pink one into the black one. Now playing Wario Land II on it, which is an excellent game. I had the original black and white version way back when but now got the colour version. Really good game. I never played the third one on the Game Boy Color but did have Wario Land 4 on the Advance.

The paint has arrived for the doubleneck. Just can't quite face taking it all apart yet and also need to get some primer for it. Tempted to dismantle the pink SP and try giving that a coating of the paint at the same time.
