This is my first post for months now, progress has been very slow on the house, mainly because I've been working Travis Bickle hours lately so only have one day a week to work at the wee maison.
Still, nearing the finish line now, soon it'll just be decoration that is needed rather than construction.
Had some work insulating a loft a little while ago and they were throwing the old insulation out so they let me have it.
I have insulated and plasterboarded the kitchen and put the wiring in for the sockets and switches, I still need to wire the lights. but it's starting to look ok. I wasn't really sure how the little window would work and the pierre apparent (visible stone work) around the door, but I'm quite pleased with the way it looks.
Fitted a trap door with stairs for access to the loft space above the kitchen too.
I also bought some Vilroy & Boch tiles for the kitchen floor, off le bon coin of course, got a great bargain on these as they're normally pretty pricey a square metre. I'm going to put some self levelling compound down first as I think it'll make life easier when it comes to laying these.
Hopefully it won't be so long till my next post, but as I say, progress is slow.
