Thanks These are the only photo's I have until I get back from work later. All the walls are fairly solid except the bit around the extractor hole - this will be covered anyway with cooker splashback. There are some ropey area's but will take some pics later tonight The old serving...

Thanks. I haven't had any plasterers around at all yet and the walls are pretty much like this for the whole room (small kitchen). Is that a problem do you think? I was hoping the rough bits could be 'patched' (my word) over, then skimmed by a plasterer
