Today has shown glimpses of what lies ahead. Big progress (suddenly the door between the hallway and the sitting room is blocked up; tomorrow we'll get the new doorway slightly further towards the dining room) and even more dust (our smoke detectors don't like it any more than we do; I might need to find a bag to tape them shut tomorrow to stop them from constantly alarming). So stage 2 has begun with our builder doing his first full day. Boy, what a difference it makes when you suddenly see structural changes. Amazing!
Dad has worked wonders restoring the old potting shed and making it useful again. It'll never look like new, but I reckon a lick of paint and we'll still get years of grow-your-own fun out of it. Shall we have a quick poll? What colour do you think we should paint the woodwork? (I won't promise that I'll take any notice at all, but I'd like to hear your ideas)
Right then, we've got a crack-o'-dawn start tomorrow to clear the rooms upstairs for the plasterers. Night, night, all!
