Steps in the right direction

After weeks of almost imperceptible progress, the renovations are now coming on in leaps and bounds. I'd been worried about whether or not we'd make it home by Christmas but the builder always assured us that it would happen. Now, on the first day of December, I almost believe him.


Our new, straight staircase


The windows are nearly all in place now, the internal walls have been gibbed and stopped, the internal doors are all on site and the bath is in place. The whole house is beginning to take shape.

Our neighbours are impatiently awaiting the grand unveiling when the shrinkwrapped scaffolding comes down to reveal the work so far. But they'll have to wait until the painter is finished first.

(If you'd been wondering why I haven't been posting over the last few weeks, it's because we've had visitors. Hop over to Tales of Jo to see what we've been doing.)
