More progress on site

Since the last post I've had another 2 weeks off work to spend time at the house.  The first week we were joined by Gill's Mum and Dad and made good progress with painting.  There's a lot to do with the whole house needing at least 3 coats on every wall and ceiling.

Look no balustrade!

The second week off saw Dom's parents lending a hand with fitting the kitchen and laying flooring as well as a bit more painting.

 We also met our new neighbours this week who will be moving in to the house next door very soon.  They seem very nice, and we're not just saying that because they read our blog!
