Two steps forward and one step back

The project is still steaming along, The front door is in, and there is one window to go. The external insulatin and render contractor will be arriving this week, and we are about to order the stair, which will take a few weeks. The only setback was the timber floor in the sitting room/dining room; the suspected woodworm activity was throughout and the joists must be replaced. Better to find out now!

Tom came for the weekend. He and Karen emptied the middle bedroom, sanded the floor, varnished the floor, painted it and we moved everything back in tonight. Tom also built shelving for the big back bedroom. And we managed to watch both Rugby World Cup matches.


The old patio door comes out - it will be re-used as the front of the studio

Floor ready for rebuilding







Full size drawing - the best kind! I'm doing the ventilation system and it's a steep learnng curve for everyone.
