We had help again today and we booked in a couple of extra bodies this evening.

   

Our living room windows! OMG ! They’re massive! We are thinking of making the slight smaller. That much glass is going to cost a furniture    Blush .

   

But the view is pretty awesome

It's looking a bit like a fort I made for one of the children years ago out of plywood - only a bit bigger.

If the glass is too dear, you could glaze with polythene while you save up.

Rain has hindered play today. Just one small wall up today. It includes the first of our kitchen windows  Smile .

Just wondering SC what the exterior will be clad with once all the inner walls are up? I imagine stonework and wondered whether you will be tackling this yourselves as well? Huh

Apologies for being a nosy git! Cry

You’re right veggie. Stone cladding on the porch and larch cladding on the rest of the house. With tin roof. And yes we’ll be doing it ourselves.

Another Friday. So only half day on the build for me. Work getting in the way. I did help with screwing down the soleplate for the internal walls. We got our first internal panel in place but not properly attached at the moment. Need to read the instructions for that bit  Big Grin .

   

The lawnmowers are still doing a good job.
