Day 151 - Dining room

 
We had this mad idea to increase the size of the dining room doorway to let more light into the centre of the house - this is it, and, umm, it's big!



At some point we'll have some nice oak & glass doors to go in the giant gap.

 
The hole to re-route the water pipe round to the side of the house is now full of water.

Day 4 - Branded a Fool

I wasn't at home today, early start and late back from an exhausting trip to Shrewsbury. But I arrived back to find we'd been branded!





Ignoring all the safety and hard hat warnings I grabbed some more pics...

The footings are looking very deep now



That's an old water pipe across the channel - not sure if it's live or not so it's staying put.




The digging has exposed a layer of asbestos!

Thankfully it's going to be covered by the concrete and so doesn't have to be removed. Presume it's from the previous single house that was on the plot.
