Dormers are in (nearly)

Our neighbour-to-be (Bill) took this. We now know how the trusses got up there!

The pictures below show the dormers, where the upstairs windows will be...................

Looks as if the house is lit up doesn't it? Sun was setting behind the field at the back.

Boring one ..................

All trussed up

the rain didnt stop the build as you can see.......

Now you see it, now you don't

Just read previous post. We said 'more over the weekend...' but didn't say which weekend!!
Never mind, better late than never.


Earlier this week: looking more like a real house (well a bit!)

Bill says I have to post this - 'A horse is a horse of course of course ......'  

I think this will be the last picture for a while where we can see the house without scaffolding :(

Boring or what????

Now...... see if you can guess what the weather's been like here for the last few days:

Nice place for a water feature? Good job there's another drain to put in yet.

The roof you can see is next door, our roof trusses should be delivered tomorrow.

It's dry today (but cold and windy) so hope water drains away ( springtime in the Borders eh? )

More scaffolding and water........................

Pleasant surprise!

Last Wedenesday we went to site to look how the drains were getting along (interesting lives we lead).
Delighted to find joiners were there!
This is the side of the lounge. The openings in the woodwork, from left to right will be:

• Doors to back garden. The digger will not be a feature :)
• Two small windows to side.

Notice the attractive drains.



Went back on Thursday:

Me looking through sunroom window:

And at back of sunroom:

And looking through kitchen window:

Going into utility room:

More drains and Bill's car and shadow!







More over the weekend :) .............
