The house bashing has apparently been progressing -I say apparently as I never seem to notice any change - I always seem to be inhaling dust swearing and cursing at another "fally down broken" or "butchered in the past" bit -but it was nice to rip out the old fire door on the landing (the house was used as boarding for the local prep school and has been badly "cut and shut" all over the place to provide space for boarders) - it was a great physiological boost preparing the stairwell walls for stripping and re-rendering (or a "hardwall coat") prior to final skim- this involved running in some new wiring to feed downstairs lighting-we started renovations at the top of the house and worked down so the fact that new stuff is encroaching on the ground floor has got to mean progress

Stairwell getting stripped |

Bye bye fire door! |
Bathroom activities impacting on the "Temporary" kitchen -its been temporary for the last 3 years!- activities include running in new internal soil pipe
crappy wiring now disconnected

How this place ever passed inspection...?

Landing opened out, walls ready for plasterer "magic" to be done..
Easter holidays mean full on Daddy duty which will put a hold on bashing for a while- plus I let another distraction creep into the shed!
