I asked her once what she thought when the clerk called out "all rise".
Apparently after that, she got a fit of the giggles on her next session - she forbad me from attending when she was sitting - said I was a bad influence.  cry:

Get a carpenter in ~ if you'd got a carpet fitter (usually free when you buy carpets from a reputable shop but charged for when you buy cheap carpets) he would have done it for you. 


Unless you feel capable of taking down all the doors, planing off the bottoms to the required height and replacing them all.
Usual charge is about £25 a door ~ should have got that carpet fitter in.whistle:

If he was any good he would have seen that you had purchased carpet that was too thick before he put it down.

Looks like a carpenter then. How many doors? A dozen should set you back about £300 for a day's work.

Do not let Mrs Nick tell you it is easy because it ain't and you will not be able to do it. The equipment alone will cost more that £300.
