psst2WOW! As we had hoped we’ve had a flurry of activity at the house & things have really moved forward. It’s hard to know where to start so i figured i’d give you a little overview while i write up the larger posts. So here’s what’s new :

  • Bathroom now finished & painted, there’s even a toilet roll holder to add some luxury to the experience
  • 2nd kitchen sideboard & cupboards installed ready for new appliances
  • The rear bedrooms new ceiling is up & plastered
  • New lights & power sockets run into the new bedroom
  • 1st wall totally pointed ( this is VERY time intensive )
  • Old electric, phone & data points replaced & secured
  • 4 new windows ordered to replace the current rotting ones
  • 1 new stable type door ordered. Delivery & fitting the windows & doors should be 4/6 weeks
  • Roofs on the grange & the house repaired (again)

I’m sure i’ve forgot something but i’ll be speaking to dad in length tonight when he returns from his mammoth renovation trip (it’s Good Friday today), the write ups, photos & podcast will be hot on the heals of this post.

There’s at present no further work planned for the next 4/6 weeks until Dawn goes to the house to supervise the windows being fitted but we are on the cusp of achieving what we wanted to for this year and IT’S ONLY APRIL :)
