With all the paper and picture rail removed my attention was cast to the wall to the right of the chimney brest. This wall will have the BS9000, horizontally mounted with the other BL4000 at a high level. Now this wall is plastered already (unlike the left side that had plasterboard nailed to the bare...

Being a Plumber by trade, i done a 4 year apprenticeship in Tea making, and now it was time for a brew.

Friday morning and ive taken the morning off as the aerial guys are coming. I asked for a digital TV aerial and FM aerial to be mounted to the chimney and to re-route the 2 sky+ cables into loft to follow the TV and FM aerial route into loft and down through built in wardrobe into lounge below.

Im On-Call this week so haven't been able to do much, so i started to strip the wall paper from the ceiling. I have a spare hour between finishing my day job and starting On-Call, so this took me a few days.

This afternoon i had a few spare hours, so really cracked on and got the rest of the wall paper stripped and picture rail removed and also knocked off some loose plaster. As you can see the BV3 is still in the room, and i know i should get it out of the room but as ive said before i am still using...

So now all three masterlink cables are in the corner of the built in wardrobe but the distribution box wont stay like this.

Down in this corner under the floor boards was the masterlink cable thats connected to the MX4002 in kitchen diner, this had previously been hooked up to the BS9000 which was vertically wall mounted in this corner.

Next there was the cabling routes to think about i.e Masterlink, FM aerial, Sky+ cables, powerlink, mains cables for speakers. As we are still using the lounge i decided to concentrate on one corner first and this had to be where the TV was going and where all the Maserlink, sky, tv & fm aerials...

To fit the 2"X1" batton and the trunking i drilled through batten and trunking and secured with rawl plugs and screws (obviously using a spirit level). Notice how i have also secured a backboard to wall where the speaker will hang. This is to get a perfect fixing once the wall has been plaster...

Looking at the above photo (of front room) the BV28 is going to the left of the chimney *** and the BS9000 is to be horizontally wall mounted to the right of chimney *** with the BL4000 wall mounted horizontally high up above TV and stereo and masterlinked to MX4002 in kitchen/diner. As i dont want...
