Extension of time

No news on the blog doesn't mean things aren't progressing with the extension/renovation. It's just that there's not been much in the way of tangible progress.

That said, we now have written quotes from our two shortlisted builders, have spent a load more time looking at our budget to see where/if we can make some savings, and we've been in touch with a few previous clients of the builders to find out how they got on with them. All good news so far, which is promising, but then I should hope so as the builders gave us the contact details!

We should therefore be able to come to an agreement with our preferred builders over the next week and get things moving. Who knows, we might even see some activity on site this month!

Meanwhile, we'll have to do more finalising of materials, specifications, finishes etc. And there's always more clearing of things in the garden that we want to reuse, such as dry stone walling, bricks and paving slabs. Beats going to the gym!
