WEDNESDAY - early a.m. what happened yesterday, and coming soon what happened on Wednesday - the covers are off, and ready for blockwork

DEMOLITION - its going to be a BIG room. And the drains are underway.

START OF WEEK 2 By lunchtime today the foundations have been poured and wrapped up warmly with insulation blocks and tarpaulin - the drains are the next thing.

Plans to pour the foundations today have been snowed off........ You can just make out the mystery pipes that have appeared

Day 4 - no pictures today - various holes, pipes and cables uncovered, necessitating a visit from the architect. Pictures will come tomorrow.

DAY 3 - the electricity cable - work halts as we hit the main electricity supply to the house - now repaired.

14th January 2013

Day one of the build - drains and foundation outlines

First we have a builder - then we have no builder - maybe this time next week we will have a builder.

Have been insulating the garage, for winter quarters......... if we have a builder!!!!!

Today it is warmer outside than it is inside.

Architect has described the 'house' as a windbreak - gives you some idea of the task ahead.

More photos soon.
