I was despairing that I would need to dismantle this myself and pay to have it taken to the tip. Fortunately someone (who was handy with tools) wanted it and was willing to take it down and away.
The bricks have arrived for the building of the ground floor extension. The builder wanted to get all the bricks at once, so there wouldn't be any colour variation between batches. Unfortunately they couldn't be delivered to the back of the house, so builders have had to take the time to move them by wheelbarrow. I have "fond" memories of doing that once with paving stones at my parents house. Also the loft work has progressed. They have finished the roof, added a gutter and painted and edged the brickwork. Inside they are still adding plasterboard. This is the eves storage space for keeping spare suitcases. My daughter thinks it is a secret compartment.
The roof at the front is on.. I think they are working on top now... But I can't see that bit. Here is a view from the loft ( Dave braved the ladder to get up there) and it is a lovely view from up there. It is open at the back and the window at the front is open too. But the weather this weekend is supposed to be excellent, so that probably won't matter.
The weather has been frightful, which allows us to notice that the house does not leak.... Actually, its quite comfortable, though you can hear the rain on the roof in the loft, but it is isn't that loud. Also I managed to do my Christmas shopping before lockdown was called. And we got the tree in too. And the link to the cute cat video. https://photos.app.goo.gl/ 5FPm2a7VLZR6edUj9
