Walls are down!

OK As I type this I am in a state of hysterical excitement. I don't want to go to my meetings or talk about content anymore I want to see the results!

This morning I was told the wall between the front room and old dining room won't come down until Tuesday :-(

Alas it's down and there is light and space, a new chimney opening and loads of ruble. Excitement for my feelings right now is an understatement.

BH is still banging on about another L sofa which I think is too cluttered and modern. I know the sofa I want just need to work my magic or have a hiss strop fit.

The Amtico floor is going to be ripped up and the original timber from the back lounge will be relocated to the old dining area...

Slowly easing in...

OK so we are getting in to the beginning of the build slowly... it's taken three days just to get the equipment in - not very exciting. And I am sure the builder is doing the usual annoying thing and running two jobs at once.

We spent Sunday clearing the lounge, the previous week we were relieved of the dining set and wine rack, prompt purchaser on eBay came and dismantled everything the day bidding ended.

Our very nice neighbours are storing the huge L sofa, coffee table and massage chair. How nice is that?!!!

Lovely family, and we had a great dinner with them on Saturday night, we are hoping to pop round on a regular basis whilst the build progresses!

I will take some photos and post the progress of the soon to be "proper" building site.

The most exciting thing to happen is Stellious taking down the curtains from a company called Neat Pleats!

The skip is here so all the rubbish BH was collecting in the cellar is out...
