20th November 2008
Hi all,
Sorry for the lack of updates, as I had said in past diary entries my bathroom is being ripped apart and re fitted with a walk in shower, the room is also being made bigger, along with a new boiler. starting Monday last week I was left without hot water or gas until Thursday, and the shower was taken on that Monday too, and wont be back till finished, then on Monday this week the Loo was removed and I wont have one of them till next Tuesday or Wednesday, while doing this work the electric has been on and off, and I have had to pretty much move out of the house till done. I'm managing to get on line a little, but not for long enough to update every day at the moment. Hopefully from next week can move back into my house properly, instead of just sleeping her, and hanging about other houses in the day (mums and nans) here are some pictures of the work so far just in case your interested..
Day 2 (the drains are dug our (and still look that same as this now on day 10)


Minging or what, it was SPOTLESS on Monday :-(
Day 3 (after the water tank had been removed, and back door bricked up, meaning it was already a good mess with everything out of the airing cupboard removed and placed all over the show)

Day7 (only the Loo left)


Day8, (No Loo Either, and after a problem with the floor, they have had to dig down 2 foot, and relay new concrete with a damp course)

Day 10 (today concrete base and drains are done, now its got to be left for 3 days to set before pipe work and flooring can be done)

and there we are, the Kitchen is full of crap, and everything has a thick later of brick dust on it now, so cooking in the house is not really possible.
Even with this upheaval and with my birthday party last Friday, I managed to lose 3.5Lb since my last weigh in about a month or so ago. The Party last Friday was excellent, it was great to see so many old friends, and some new ones too :-) Pictures are available on face book (mark Peter Crook) and some on the forum too.
Its now 2.30am, and I'm off to bed, no builders tomorrow while the floor sets, so I'm having a lie in I hope. And will try to get back soon, keep reading,
Mark.
P.s.. any one want to make some free personalised Christmas cards, just pay Low P&P? i use these a lot, just don't sign up to the benefits program at the end :-) (any questions about these cards ask on forum for more info)
