What started out as "we should mount the TV on the wall and re-arrange the furniture so we have a proper dining room again, instead of two living rooms and an eat-in kitchen that is too small for more than about 4-5 people (so having dinner guests is always a bit impractical unless it's warm enough to eat on the patio)" has turned into "yes, but also we're getting a new TV and a fancy soundbar and paying someone to install it all correctly so we don't fuck up our 100-year-old walls too badly."
