May the 4th be with you!
Roll on September, I might even have to buy a Blu-Ray player!
Ahh to be a child again, Douglas has been known to do similar things!
Well Katie and I have come to the decision that we should site a static caravan at the cottage in Yarkhill, and rent out our house in Bishops Frome. Hopefully this will speed up the process of…
Cottage Plans.
I meant to post these ages ago, but at last here they are.
We’ve not followed them exactly, as the upstairs measurements are wrong and would have resulted in walls going through windows!
Also worth mentioning that the room labled ‘Dining’ will in fact be the kids playroom.
The Utility room now has a door instead of a Window, and there is a laundry cupboard near the bedroom with the chimney stack.

Well it’s been a busy few weeks at the cottage, but I feel things are really starting to move along now. I’ve had a few friends and family lend a hand, which has really helped. Many thanks guys, you know who you are!
So back to the Cottage, structurally most of the hard work has now been done.

The rear extension has been built, roof is on (but not tiled yet!), concrete floor is down but we are still waiting on doors and windows.
Most of the first fix re-wiring has been done, but we are waiting on E-On to move the power-supply. Until they have done this there is one internal (that used to be external) wall that cannot be knocked down, and the roof to the new extension cannot be complete.
This week, much like last I will be concentrating on the stud partitioning and battening out the exterior walls reading for insulating and plater-boarding.
They don’t make adverts like this anymore!
I need to find me some Um Bongo now…..
