Odds and ends

Today was a bit of an odds and ends day.

The internal walls, on which the roof trusses will rest, were built up to the required height today. Here, one of the trusses is held in place by the builder, giving a good impression of the roof line.


The useless wooden lintel over the bay window that was fitted many moons ago by persons unknown was replaced with proper reinforced concrete lintels and bricks up to the roof-line. And lots of rubble was cleared out from yesterday's chimney demolition work.


We're one month into the project and the builder reckons that we're more or less on schedule. Most of the unknowns we had at the start are now known and resolved, so cock-ups aside, we should be able to keep to the original schedule, aiming to finish by the end of September.
