Jan's perspective
The building supervisor and the architects had an 8am 'start up' meeting on site which we also attended. That was preceded by the 7.30am arrival and commencement of the asbestos removal dudes - all bio-hazard suits and "DANGER" tape. Caught me out as I wasn't expecting anyone before 8am and had to do a very quick change from dressing gown to work clothes. By the time we left at 9am there was much hammering, sawing and action on site.
We are now camping out in our kitchen. Mattress on floor; camping chairs and table folded up when not in use; food & wine living in one little cupboard; what was the pantry is now our wardrobe; where the cups and plates used to live is our shoe cupboard (shoes take up too much space); TV and laptop where the kettle used to be. We have to cover our mattress up with an old fitted sheet when we are not sleeping in it as there is no telling those dogs that a big mat on the floor is not their mat.
We also have access to the bathroom and the (old) spare room which is full of stuff that needs to be boxed up and stored this weekend - all the awkward things that won't fit neatly into boxes. We have our clothes rail in there and the dog mats (their real ones).
Building Note:
There will be a roof over this deck and those casement windows will be removed and french doors installed. This will be the front door for a while until Phase 2
