I've spent the whole of this morning panicking about my project. I am so furious that Estates have done this without telling anyone.

Mary, who is in charge of the whole Arts complex only knew when the builders turned up this morning and Peter, the Head of MSU, wasn't told either. Both knew about, and had okayed, my project, so would have known to bring this up with Estates if they'd had any warning. I just can't believe the lack of communication.

Anyway, I have reverted back to my original location - the stairwell, and will be covering only the lower section, removing the practical and health and safety problems I had before. I have already asked Peter about it and he has okayed it from both a wall-covering and a H&S point of view.
