It's taken ages...........

Well I finally got the door hung in the bedroom alcove.  I ended up using a plastic folding door as I looked at MDF but it was far too heavy to make a large door with.  I also looked at buying a 'full size' 27 inch wide door and cutting it down, the plastic one was only £8.48 from B&Q so if it didn't look right it wasn't that much to lose, if it worked then great, saved myself twenty quid or so.  It took a bit of tweaking but I got there in the end and it looks pretty good even if I say so myself.  Pauline isn't that keen on the small gaps at the top but I can rig up a small pelmet to hide those.  Next thing is to tidy the bedroom and store the stuff in the cupboard I've just created, YEAHHHH!!  The fish pond next door is now turning into something that resembles a Greek temple or the nearby Penshaw Monument, several upright pillars with a roof on it, I'm sure there has to be something in the local planning regs to stop it, you have to get planning permission for a lean-to on the house and this structure is 12 foot long by 8 foot wide by 7 foot tall. Still we'll let him finish it then check with the planning department.
