Project: Extension - Days 1-5

Just a quick summary to get us up to date, then I can start with daily highlights of what is occurring.

Our extension was more than a bit DIY. And had a few problems. Like it was freezing in winter, kinda hot in summer (because none of the windows opened), and leaked quite badly when it was raining. A plan was hatched to do something about it.

Day 1. The old structure was pulled down. Revealing it had a hidden door in the wall, and was insulated with ceiling tiles.

Start of day 2: We have a radiator outside. How cool is that.
Everybody likes little trucks and diggers. They are so cute. But if they fall over it's can be a bit tricky to get them  upright again.
Days 3,4 and 5 contained some very deep holes in the ground and lots of extra thick concrete to remove.


Day 5: Answered the door to a lovely man with an inpenetrable geordie accent who said (I think), "I have a delivery of 26 tonnes of concrete. Where would you like me to put it, pet?"
