Hi there folks.
Finally I can say that a corner has been turned and we are busy putting the house back together after what has seemed to be forever spent stripping it back.
First bit of outward change was putting the new windows in the front of the house.
These are the inside bits
and the frames.
and nice new shiny ones installed letting oodles of light flood the rooms.
Over the last couple of weeks we have been concentrating upstairs, things as usual haven't gone quite according to plan, or schedule. Though I have to say that I am not as surprised by that as I would have been six months ago.
Of course, my stress levels were not helped when I arrived one morning to discover.....
The ceiling had disappeared! It was in a pretty poor state so it had to come down and additional supports put in place.
Just getting to grips with that unplanned bit of work when the floor disappeared too!
As well as for the bath, and the shower too though I forgot to take a picture then.
I am going to stop sharing pictures now because, excitingly, the bath has been fitted, the floor has been tiled and tomorrow we will be tiling the walls so that later in the week the plumber may just be able to fit the shower and toilet too so I should be able to actually share it looking like a proper bathroom.........
We also have the potential for hot water..... new cylinder installed and ready for the sparky to work his magic.
And I even have some skirting board ready to do a couple of the bedrooms....
See you soon.
