Most of the ceilings and floors are now out in the bungalow, we are ready for another bonfire and we have filled a skip with old plaster and insulation, a lot of wood has been salvaged and Pete and Dave are currently in the garden room starting to lay the floor joists. Yesterday we took up the Parquet floor, which came up surprisingly easily, I now have the job of cleaning of the old bitumen from each piece, and its a huge pile -anyone up for a "parquet party"! we are going to use it in the porch of the new house. We have also saved the sink and taps and shower head from the old bathroom to reuse.
The building inspector is due today to discuss the foundations, which Pete hopes to start in a couple of weeks with his new laser measuring tool!!
we have had the payment schedule from Harlows who are making the timber frame, as they are about to start work on it.
We took deliverey of the Rain Water Harvester yesterday, its massive, imagine having to bury a people carrier in your back garden, that is what it's like and there is a chance that the digger arm won't reach the bottom of the hole, so we might have to dig a hole for the digger or finish it by hand!!!!-another little job for me-I AM LIVING THE DREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!
