Week 7...The Timber Frame Day 1 (part 2)

I returned to the site at 4pm and wow what a difference a day makes!!!

We had a ground floor that you could walk around and look out of the windows....amazing. I can't really believe it is real, seeing the actual house appear from what was just piles and piles of soil, only a few days previously, is quite overwhelming.





Jack however was thoroughly unimpressed and promptly peed up the side of the frame so he got resigned to being tied up to the scaffolding!!


Luckily Mum was a little more enthusiastic at the progress made - even needing a sit down in the kitchen...you had better get used to the "seats" we won't be able to afford any once the house is built!!


Half an hour later and Jud got home and although I saw far more enthusiasm the day he taught Hazel to jump up into his arms!! I think even he was left a little speechless at what we had achieved so far...



Welcome to my Blue House (it is a breathable membrane FYI!)


Fish and Chips for tea to celebrate I think....But Rome wasn't built in a day and tomorrow we are meeting Mr D with lots to discuss and decide on...lets hope the sun keeps shining on us.
