Like my iBook, our house has no windows.
Actually, that’s not strictly true – it really has two sets of windows. It’s just that none of them are actually in the walls, if you see what I mean. We currently have the old set lying in the garden, the new set lying in the living room, and gaping holes where windows should be but aren’t. The windows were expected to take 6-8 weeks to arrive, but they’re here in just over 2. We’re trying to avoid getting our hopes up about early completion, but it’s difficult with the rate that things are going back in. There’s still a mammoth amount of work to do, but all the stuff that’s been done has been very visible. The new roof is going on the kitchen today, the windows are being fitted today and tomorrow, and then the heating people are going to get the central heating working so the plasterers and tilers can get in – the house is currently too cold for paint and grout to dry properly – Scottish weather, huh? So, still to do – the conservatory needs to be replaced, kitchen fitted, bathroom fitted, various rooms tiled and floored, carpeted, plastered, painted, doors fitted, skirtings fitted, well – you see what I mean 🙂
Still, it’s getting there 🙂
