Owing to the extremely hot weather (37C yesterday and 40C today in the garden) little has been achieved apart from stripping paint from some of the panels that will need to be replaced as part of the entrance vestibule refurbishment.  This included the surrounding  inner panels for the forward large window and the beading and side panels adjacent to the the entrance door.  I noted that the door hinge is chrome but has been overpainted with black paint which is easily removed.
