Decorating - preparation seems to take forever

This time it's the lounge. Off with the orange wallpaper, ok some people have loved it but not me. I may have done once a long, long time ago but been there and done that as they say. I may put some before and after pictures of the other rooms we have done so far - this is for my sake really, to give me some encouragement. It's not just decorating, the electrics in this room are possibly original 1930's so are a priority. This means lots of plaster dust all over the place, still worth it I hope. These are the before ones, need to find more of the after ones.

Top one is kitchen, middle is orange wallpaper, bottom is dinning room
