In the beginning...

In the beginning there was a great flood, and it caused the laminate to be without form or void. Chris said "let there be oak floor" , and the insurance company said "ok", and there was oak floor. Chris looked at the floor and saw that it was good. And evening passed, and morning, the second day.

Chris said, let there be skirting, let it fill the whole edge of the floor. And the insurance company said "ok", and there was skirting, and Chris looked at the skirting, and saw that it was good.

Evening passed, morning came, the third day. Chris said "let there be paint", and the insurance company said "ok", and there was paint, ancient white in colour it teamed over all the walls. and Chris looked at the paint, and saw that it was good.

Evening passed, morning came, the forth day. Chris said "let the room be put back exactly as it was", and the insurance company said "no, do it yourself", so verily Chris spent a whole evening moving things and putting things away. And the whole evening passed...
