Day 100: Kitchen roof
Happy Birthday to our works: 100 days old today!
Today we are awakened (or at least roused from bed) by the happy sound of builders, which we haven't heard for a while (but only cos we've been away, not because they haven't been at work). They are a teensy bit puzzled about whether they have the correct plans, and about the lintel over the street window (which was a mistake: the laminate beam covers that). So I drop in on Ian on the way to work and ask him to pop by.
Back at 2: they have taken the lintel off and made very good progress on the roof: rafters are pretty well all up. The steel beam needed for strengthening is here too (but where exactly is it to go? They arent sure. Well).
When they drill/hammer stuff into place the vibrations go through the house. Controlled use of violence.
