Snow progress

Not a lot has happened at Hillside this week. Snow and freezing temperatures all week have kept the builders away for most of the time - it's been too cold to mix mortar so the roof tiling hasn't been finished. Snow and ice on the roof and scaffold have also made it very dangerous. As a result they've done a few minor bits and pieces inside but nothing of any consequence.

The timber frame company made it to site yesterday to add in some bits that they'd 'forgotten'. The kitchen supplier and the joiner also made a site visit. Could do with the windows now to try and make the place weathertight...

Had hoped to go to the Green Shop in Stroud today to talk render paints - they stock a silicate based paint that has a 15 year life - but the snow prevented us. Maybe next weekend.
