WE ARE NOT THE ONLY BUILDERS ON SITE!

THE WOOD HAS BEEN DELIVERED FROM FLETCHERS FOR THE KITCHEN AND FAMILY ROOM AND THE VERANDAH, WE FORGOT TO INCLUDE THE VERANDAH STEPS IN THE MEASUREMENTS SO PETE WENT OVER YESTERDAY TO BUY SOME MORE.

PETE AND DAVE MADE ABOUT 96 OF THESE PLINTHS FOR THE ARCHITRAVE TO STAND ON!

SKIRTING BOARD GONE ON IN THE BOYS BATHROOM

..........AND ARCHITRAVE

FINNS BEDROOM HAS HAD TOP COAT OF PAINT APART FROM THE  FEATURE WALL, WE HAVE SORTED THE QUOTES FOR THE REST OF THE PAINT, TRUMPET, HICKS BLUE, BONE CHINA, .............. SO WE SHOULD SEE A SPALSH OF COLOUR SOON

USE BY DATES- HOPEFULLY THE REASON THE FLOOR TILES IN THE GUEST ENSUITE DID NOT TAKE WAS BECAUSE WE USED AN OLD BAG OF TILE ADHESIVE,  SAD FACE!

I THINK WE NEED TO SPEED UP ON THE FURNITURE MAKING!!!!!!

We are getting closer to being self sufficient!, we have agreed to have solar panel on the back of the house, Pete says we have to change the way we live to fit in with the sun so we have a have a roast for breakfast and cornflakes for tea, and if the suns out what ever I am doing I have to rush home to put on everything electric!!!!

We are still here plodding on feeling the pressure a bit now, as summer is here and we went to be in by the end of Autum, but its still lots of fun!
