Week 4
23/April/2001
|
|
Monday and the first blocks were put in place. |
| My profiles from the previous Monday were now being used. |
|
|
|
|
Monday evening and I got home and attacked the Laurel bush with my chainsaw on a stick. One of the two soakaways will be going in here. |
Monday night our sheds were broken into and you guessed it, my new chainsaw on a stick was nicked among other things. Oh well, at least I got to use it once.
|
Tuesday morning and up with the Larks sawing insulation board. |
|
|
|
Also loaded the pickup again from the previous days cutting.
It took 3 days in all to get rid of it all. |
|
|
As the rain came down the builders made theirselves a tent. |
|
What a cosy place to work |
|
|
Wednesday and no builders today. Much to my dismay the proper wall insulation arrives so I didn't need to saw all that other stuff up. The first scaffolding arrives today. |
|
|
|
It's a hard job this scaffolding. |
|
Thursday and from a vantage point on the scaffolding an interloper is spotted in the chicken run. |
|
Mr cocky cockerel where did you come from? |
|
|
|
Meanwhile the walls get higher and higher and the rain stays away. |
I have a visit from the electricity man about our overhead cables and Suze orders the ceiling beams.
|
Friday end of play and they are as high as they can go without some of the roof being dismantled. |
| Saturday the Joists arrive for the first floor. |
|
|
I make a start on dismantling the roof. |
|
Mr Cockerel gets taken away by the RSPCA to somebody who takes them in. Not Mr Matthews we hope. |
|
|
| Sunday and the 2nd lift of Scaffolding arrives. |  |
|
This is how it looks at the end of week 4. |
