Well, another week over and more building work complete. We are still really pleased with how it is going – very pleased. We’re also glad that it is just the one builder and that he has not got jobbing builders working with him. He has a very high standard and we can’t fault what he’s done so far. We’re not even in as much mayhem as we thought. Because he is doing two or three rooms at a time we are able to decamp into the living room and just bunker down there and let him get on with it.
Mind you, it is not without its problems. Ian and I are spending a lot of time in very close proximity. We have even been sat on the sofa working on our respective laptops. I found Ian’s mutterings as he works distracting – and he had the cheek to say that I type too loudly – type too loudly indeed! Given the choice of a gentle tap tap on a key board or someone’s maniacally mutterings, I know which I would prefer…
Needless to say we are now working at opposite sides of the table, which is as far apart as we can get seeing we have a bed plus everything else in the living room.
Next week work on the bathroom starts. Then the kitchen and finally the living room. Hopefully by that time one of the other rooms will have dried out and we can move into there. If not, there’s always my workshop.
I know that I am due to post some new pics and I will do so over the weekend.
