Twas the night before the timber frame arrived...and unfortunately tempers were frayed and stress levels were high.
Building a house is not easy...
There has been some confusion today about whether the timber frame would actually arrive as planned on wednesday morning due to transport issues but Andy, who is coordinating our timber frame erection, pulled out the stops to ensure that tomorrow at 8am our house will be delivered to site.
I think some of Drew's famous pork pies will be required as a thank you!!
Jud and I had hoped to watch this milestone together as it seems like a pretty special event in the course of the build.....watching the lorry pull up loaded up with all the pieces of wood which will go together to make our home (crazy!!), unfortunately he had to rearrange appointments when we thought the timber frame wouldn't arrive and now we will only be able to have a few hours off in the morning...it is disappointing but I will be armed with my camera to document the process and will hopefully be able to leave early to catch up with the guys at the end of the day.
Not sure how much will get 'built' tomorrow so we are having some time off on thursday too to watch the process and meet Mr D to discuss cladding/bricks/slates etc....
I will report back with photos......
Goodnight
