Its beginning to look even more like the house Phil designed with the pitched roof going on and even the dormer over the stairwell.
And then just today its been cloaked in a black breathable membrane - a bit like a gore-tex anorak - that makes it look like a stealth fighter plane.
The joiner has set up shop on our drive and the roof battens are going on top ready for the solar PV panels that will make up the whole of the rear south-facing roof and supply all our electricity needs. Due on site 3rd May.
In the meantime I get on with the landscaping. The pond is back in shape, albeit smaller, and full of frog spawn. The retaining wall is finished and I am now levelling what will be a lawn fit for Wimbledon, albeit smaller. The aim is to have the landscaping ready at the same time as the house so the house-warming party can spread out into the garden.
whens this party then?
