Hello everyone, it’s been a while since my last post but that’s because not much has changed.  I still have no buyer for my 2 bed flat so I cannot progress the build.  So if you know someone looking to but for themselves or as a rental property here are the details

Just spent an hour on site waiting for a Kitchen Designer but he didn’t turn up.  His loss really there is plenty of competition.

The groundwork company have finally re-dug the service trench for the water supply to the correct depth I just need Thames Water to come and inspect it before it can be filled in and the water connected.

As for the bits I can do myself like the insulation, and putting up the gutters I haven’t had time as work has been very busy. I thought of making a start on the roof insulation at the weekend but the though of having to wear protective clothing and a mask in this hot weather wasn’t very appealing but I did move some wood around again.  There is still a (fair or fare ummm not sure) quite a bit of wood in the living space and it needs moving before I can put up the scaffold tower to do the high ceiling.  I need to do it soon as my bricklayer has lent me his scaffold tower but he will want it back soon I am sure

The window suppliers should have confirmed their delivery and fitting schedule today but they did not call.  The provisional date they gave me a couple of weeks ago was 14th July but I have a feeling they are going to let me down.

I bought some of my furniture was back in the Christmas sales, I been putting of delivery for a couple of months now but I finally had to agree a delivery date.  So today 2 bright red sofas have arrived and are being stored in my mum’s garage until the house is complete.
