Our first visitor!!

A rather hopeful pigeon has decided to build a totally useless nest in the new rafters - and look how much rubbish he discarded in the process!!!

Ground Source heating preparation!

Dick Baines has been battling through all the stone to dig the first of 4 trenches to take the pipes for the ground source heating......

TIMBER!!

TREES HAVE BEEN CUT IN READINESS FOR LAST STAGE OF THE GROUND SOURCE HEATING PIPES WHICH WILL BE GOING UP HERE TO THE END OF THE BUILDING

SMART!!

Preparation for new roof

Poor Dave

Dave Randall, the main builder, ended up having an emergency operation last week and has now had a kidney removed.  His son, Dell, is still working on with a few others.  We wish Dave all the very best for a speedy recovery

more roof work

Tiles are coming off over what will be a study/bedroom - I think this will be one of the nicest rooms as it faces south and will have glazed doors so will be really light.  Haven't decided whether or not to put a bathroom in here (there is one on the plans but we are not really into ensuites!).
