Day 184-185: talks with Ian

Day 184 was friday before cmas; day 185 is tuesday after new year.

Talk to Ian (and via speakerphone with Bob). Initially about the stairs: ordering the basic stairs is fine; the handrail is a problem. I wanted wood but they want £1,800 for it. Metal would have been £300 (perhaps). Maybe Parker joinery can do better? Bob to ask them. Expressing some dissatisfaction with slowness; Bob says Carl is due "this week" for the kitchen electrics and the plasterers are booked for next week; and then details the various other stuff that is scheduled. Probably OK. I ask about the tiling; Bob is surprised that it isn't done and promises to phone them...

Talk to Ian re the slightly ill-defined state of the upstairs plans: decide on floorboards throughout (inc bathroom) but they will probably be thinner (13 (14?) mm not 22) than downstairs. We also need to meet with him (later fixed for friday) to discuss the doors, etc that we want inside.
