Thanks Jason... Enjoyed reading through the pages of your thread...

ÿ

Sorry for the trail off in posts, the underfloor heating is now delivered and ready to go in but last week had to go shopping for a fireplace before i laid it down so i know where and where not to lay it. But we've picked one now so the floor will be going down this weekend. The pictures and commentary will be up and running again in no time!ÿ

So hows the build going? It's been 3 weeks or so now, so you must have made a great deal of progress! I'm sure there are many looking forward to your updates!

Hey!

Sorry avid followers for the lack of updates but i've been a bit busy!

The room has been coming on slowly. The tiles are all down now as are the matching tiled skirtings and tiled windowsills. Power cable run under the skirting tiles to where it will live. It's just bare at the moment though because it's getting sealed this weekend.

Then it will just be a case of electrics that won't take long and then paint and furnishings! Nearly there!

I will take some pictures of what it looks like now and try to get them up here by the end of tomorrow!

Thanks for your interest and patience guys and girls.ÿ

Windowsills tiled too...

Some of the equipment up in the study that's been waiting eagerly to go in! Not long now!

Like i said, the tiles are being sealed at the weekend so will update pictures then.

Then it'll just be electics, painting and furniture... Only about a month left i'm hoping!

Catch you all soon.
