More or less ten weeks in and it’s looking good.  All the plastering is done, we have two working loos, two rooms are totally ready to paint, funnily enough I’m not so excited about that now it’s actually come time to go for it!  Downstairs has lots of developments, the ensuite looks great, just need to finalise which shower to go for now, the cupboard is going to be the best ever storage space for this’n’that so I can have a beautifully uncluttered home (and a chronic cupboard).  Today I was quite fancying the ensuite for a wee hidey hole study type room but I think we’ll go with the original plan.

into the ensuite, love how the window works in there.

We have shown off our regeneration to numerous people today, the house has been going like a fair this afternoon, great fun with about 13 kids dotting about in total making iPad films in the garden.  Brilliant,that’s what this house should be about.  Tea was the order of the day with the visitors and I reckon I had about 8 cups in amongst the comings and goings, lucky we now have two loos.

Wishing you all a brilliant weekend. xx

We are nearly done with the plastering now, just a bit of the ensuite and the bedroom cupboard to go. The  two front bedrooms are pretty much finished minus a cupboard door.  Many of the lights and plug points are in situ now too.  The plumbing has resumed progress and it feels like things are moving along nicely.  Looks like I can go and buy some white emulsion to get the first watery coat on.

Lovely day again here if you kept in the sunshine.  Had a good walk round the Botanics and visited the library too. Let’s keep fingers crossed it’s sunny over the weekend. x

We’ve been out in Glasgow today catching up with friends. I am pleased to say there are some doors actually in place now and all the rooms are plastered upstairs.  Have a  look….

The tiles for both bathrooms have arrived and the other bathroom things are ready to collect,  I need to buy some door handles for upstairs tomorrow and soon decorating will be in full swing.
