Wow it has been so long since I posted on this site 209 Days – I do not know where the time has gone – Well to fill you in on the last 8 months or so, not much has happened.

The tears of disappointment are now dry – life goes on. The major task now that the winter has gone is the extension on top of the utility room for a new and second Bath/dressing room 8m x 3m (26’ x 10’).

The contractor was supposed to start work today, but was delayed by bad weather on another job last week, but he should be starting tomorrow 5th April.
