ON THE UP!

It's really busy this morning, Harlows turned up with the first load of the upstairs panels at 8 am, they have just off loaded it all from the road with the forklift and put it on the loading bay that the scaffolders built at the front of the house, and they have now been moved onto the floor that has been laid to make way for the next load that the chap has gone off to get.

The scafffolders are back and they can't get on the drive so are having to carry all the poles from the road! they should finish today.

"Hey man" Ken and "No worries" Ken are here just getting on with it, they are building the chimneys today so I have been out with Pete to finalise the height, we already knew what log burners we are having and the style of the fire places so that is all sorted now, but we do need to source an old oak beam, I fancy part of an old pier with some metal work or bolts still attached (perhaps the odd barnacle!!).

Living in the Caravan feels a bit more awkward ( it's fine inside although feels colder than it did in the winter???) but the site is really full and you can't get into the garden easily, I fenced off some of the garden from the building site yesterday so I can keep the dogs and kids safe when we are outside with all the comings and going on site.

I am still waiting from my painted card to come from little Greene so that I can really start to get organised with the colour choices for outside.

GREAT NEWS.... The Bi-folders have been installed in Leicester and they look realy good and our friends are pleased with them so all I need to do now is get them to try out the paint colours I am unsure about!

THE FLOOR BOARDS GOING DOWN

view from the back of the house, which we had not really seen before, because of bungalow living!

Pete thinks that this time next week we should have all the upstairs panels on , and if the brickies take easter off, this will give Pete chance to really get ahead.
