We have a room!

Well the brickies were here again today; another working Saturday! The downside to it was that we were scared half to death when they arrived at 8 and started banging around. Still, they cracked on, finished all of the brickwork and I'm happy to say that the props are now out. The house is now supported on the new steels. A few cracks have appeared in the plaster around the house, but it'd be mighty difficult to make the extent of changes to a building that we have, and get zero movement.


It's nice to see the new kitchen area in all it's glory without odd bits of wall or props obscuring the view. It's the first time I think I've been able to properly imagine what the finished product will look like.






The builders weren't the only people working today, we spent the afternoon emptying the second bedroom and put up new wardrobes. Ikea furniture shouldn't naturally take too long to fit, but as seems to be a recurring theme with or wardrobes, they needed some customising; namely in the shape of fitting around a roof beam. It took a lot of fettling, but we're pretty happy with the finished product!
