After what seems a week or two of no movement, everything is starting to move forward again.  The plasterboard and kingspan insulation panels are being delivered, now the first fix plumbing is complete, we are just waiting for the electrician, which I hope will be in the next day or so.  The bricks get delivered next - the initial 10,000 spread around the house, and bricking starts next week - 10 weeks roughly to finish.  We are getting a nick name as the 'Green House' locally, so it will be nice to see some bricks covering it up!

The guys have been spending their time doing what must be one of the worst jobs in the house, installing the insulation, which just gets everywhere.  Now the rooms are taking shape and everything is eerily quiet, as the fibregalss absorbs all the sound.  This is the loft space getting the treatment.



One of the back bedrooms, you can see the Kingspan insulation panels on the eaves




And finally Stuart and Steve have finished the roof, and it looks great - all tiles and capping is in place, and we just need a little rain to wash off the dust and dirt.  From the road the slate gives the roof a nice depth, and you can see the thickness and texture of the slates, so very happy with our choice!
