So, building work progress so far....

19th of June - the foundations were dug

Tom got on a digger again and took the tree up from the front garden, and basically trashed it, but at least the stump is out (It's still on the front garden though)

23rd June -the insulation was delivered (thanks dad)

And the brickwork started on the conservatory base

Tom went shopping and bought a hedge cutter, and then actually used it!

The wall was bricked in between the lounge and dining room
and the steel put in place where half the kitchen used to be
30th June - the slab has been poured
and Bert wondered what on earth we were doing to his house
Alan and Chris came up to do the windows (not that they needed changing - we were thinking at least another 5 years with them!)


3rd July - the wall was built opposite the soon to be loo

and we lost a wall between the dining room and the outside world

and the veggie garden was going well, we got out first harvest of potatoes and the beds look great

7th July - came home to find the ceiling gone (but it's back up now)

The rubble pile went today (and Andy actually did some work)

the windows look great

A very open plan house
