I was greeted by a hive of activity as I left for work this morning (which reminds me that I must let the builder know about the wasps nest in the porch roof before he demolishes it!). Two huge 'muck away' lorries, Dave the digger driver, and the electrician were all on site bright and early. C stopped counting after lorry number 7 had taken another load of spoil away. They'll be back again tomorrow as there's still a huge mound outside.
Meanwhile the annexe has been partially demolished. I was suprised to see that it was a cavity wall construction, considering how cold a room it was. But then the roof was nothing more than clay tiles over a few timbers and 10mm of polystyrene, so I think that's where all the heat was lost!
The weather forecast remains good for the days ahead which is a godsend - the scale of excavation would be awful (and probably quite dangerous) if it was like the Somme out there.
Added panes of glass and roof tiles to the piles of reclaimed materials.
