One on the side wall:

And one at the bottom of the front steps:

These can be quite expensive to buy, rather than do that I thought I&#8217;d make some. So off the local Trago to purchase some numbers. . . .
I had this piece of oak left over from the [...]]]></description>

Toys everywhere!!   I&#8217;ve looked around at storage solutions in the shops and nothing seems to be quite right. Too small, wrong shape, wrong size and mostly far too expensive. So Jo has ordered one of these:

I got this pic a couple of years back online somewhere and can&#8217;t remember &#8211; if [...]]]></description>

Needs a lot of work to get it in good condition. First all paint needs to be stripped by hand (don&#8217;t wont to risk the joints by dippping). Then some sanding before scarfing in lots of new bits. Then it will be onto paint. I&#8217;m going to spray the [...]]]></description>

At the moment there is a cupboard in the way:

Not anymore:

This week we had some more visits from timber frame companies &#8211; looks like we have 3 or 4 possible suppliers on that front. [...]]]></description>

The request was actually to move the meter to a new location &#8211; a turn through 90 degrees and onto the wall above the back door. This will mean that we&#8217;re able to [...]]]></description>

Apologies for quality of the pics but you get the idea. Made from some old roof beams, wire mesh and left [...]]]></description>

The first step is to remove some of the consumer units that are dotted around the place!! I think there are 4 at the moment, ideally these will be consolidated [...]]]></description>

I had to stain all of this log lap &#8211; I don&#8217;t recommend it, a very tedious job
