Painted out this purple wall, 2 coats..This is the wall thats getting paper on it...
Also got coving to go up.....

These were only quicly painted over and not the actual colour etc..was just to get rid of the purple before we paint properly..
2 doors painted front and back 3 coats on each
And the inside of cupboard all done, all woodwork with 3 coats and inside with 2 coats..

Next job is finish other door

kool your plan of work should be....
1, fit covng, prime then fill it, snad it down.
2, paint ceiling and coving two coats.
3, paint walls, 2/3coats depending how it covers on the purple. Coat fire place at the same time.
4, knot, prime, fill woodwork. rub/nib it down.
5. undercoat woodwork (extra coat of undercoat won't hurt on new woodwork) then gloss. or if eggshelling, two coats of eggshell (as its self undercoating)
6. prep and paint doors two coats (undercoat then finish coat) at the same time.
7. paper walls when woodwork is dry. If lining the walls before papering (advised!!!) do this before section 5 and 6.

I usually do ok mate, but thanks..
Doors are already undercoated and getting 3 coats of Eggshell..
As for the order more than likely will chop and change...
Never added in all I will be doing, but of course I will be filing and sanding coving etc prior ro painting and that....
That one fireplace wall that is getting papered, wall has been filled and smoothed and sanded down and then 2 coats of paint..I won't be putting lining paper on it as really there is no need..
cheers though..
Hopefully be finished in about 4 weeks
