Glad to be Clad

We didn't think anything was going to happen this week but at the last moment the cladding was put on and painted within two days. The house is really now starting to take shape and is weather proofed. This means that most of the work from now on will be on the inside. For those of you in any doubt that little white shed in the front of the house is a Portaloo not a Tardis as my sister suggested.

We've got a roof!!

Finally, we've got a roof on the house and a solar panel as well. We had a slight hitch because the builders had to take out all the windows upstairs because they were the wrong size so things have been going a little bit slower than anticipated. However, we should be having the upstairs cladding put on next week with any luck. Our builders asked us to get the house pre-wired for telephones but they didn't give us a lot of notice and it took some time to get the quotes for it but fortunately this is now complete. This means we can have the plastering done when they're ready to do it.
