Milestones!

I was probably a little optimistic hoping that the bathroom tiling would be done by now, but we're getting there. I think today was my day to "hit the wall"; It's the first day since we got the keys to the house that I've felt physically knackered since I woke up this morning. It didn't stop us going to the house tonight to carry on with the bathroom tiling, but it did mean we didn't stop as long as I have been doing recently.

Despite not having a fully tiled bathroom, I thought it was worth posting as we've achieved two milestones in the last two days:

1) We have a fully working central heating system which means we have hot water!! It seems like such a small thing but it's amazing how excited we both were. It makes it feel like we're that one step closer to being able to move into our new house!

2) The first lot of plaster has started going on the walls! Alex started today in the lounge and managed to get the ceiling done and both of the sound-proofed alcoves. It's amazing at how much difference it makes. It all just feels so much cleaner and habitable.

Tomorrow more plaster will go onto the walls as well as the chimney flue and hearth.

That's it for now, but here's some of the progress pictures:
