Day 233: Tim and Bob

Tim at work today putting the spiral stairs into alignment, finishing off the landing at the top (a grand word for a little space!) and building a studwork wall to separate off D's bedroom from the stairwell. It is now possible to walk from the childrens old bedroom to the top of the stairs, and thence either downstairs or into D's prospective bedroom. OR at least it was, until Tim put the sheet of insulation back, since the side is not yet tidied up inside and isn't yet part of the "inside" of the house.

2:30, Bob (back from the warmer waters of the caribbean) and Ian come round for a review of progress. I whinge about the vast amounts of sand that we have, and Bob admits there may be a bit more than is plausible, though we do need some to finish off the plastering. Discuss timetabling: Bob phones Carl who will come friday to finish off the wiring so the plasterers can finish the brick side of the wall, and indeed the last wall of the kitchen. Insulation (of the correct thickness...) is to be ordered so the floor can go down in the side. This is supposed to occur on wed/thurs (err...).
