Friday

Our camera has gone awol so unfortunately there are no photos again today. Its looking good though on another sunny chilly day! It seems fairly quiet on site today (only 2 white vans!), the joiners have plasterboarded the kitchen and dining room today and the electrician is tidying up/routing the masses of wiring to the consumer unit in the utility room. It looks like mission control in there. The BT cable is being fed into the house before the external render is started which is due to happen from Monday.

We had a visit from Ordnance Survey the other day. Amazingly in this era of satellite and other mapping technologies there are still people driving round in cars checking on changes to the landscape, apparently its a whole lot cheaper too. In order to accurately update the OS the surveyor is going to return in April to plot the buildings etc.

A lady also called by as she has traced her family history to the area and in particular to a joiner who lived here in 1871. I've promised to send a photo of the house which stood here, parts of which date from that time.
