We now have proper electricity!!!!! And even a house alarm…to protect our rotten joists etc :-)!! The electricians have finished off now apart from the kitchen appliances which can’t be done until we have a kitchen and also the lean too which we need our planning permission for. There’s still no news on the tree front, its now been 5 weeks so surely we’ll hear soon….I got nowhere when I called last week.
Also it would seem Richard doesn’t have a new job! Well he did obviously, but his current employer dangled a very attractive pay rise and improved way of working at him and he was persuaded to stay! He’s giving it a chance and given his new contract was on his desk within 30 mins and his hefty pay rise backdated to the beginning of the month its looking promising.

Blimey! Wish my employer would give me a payrise like that. Good for Richard!
When does/did it feel like you are finally getting somewhere with the new house?
WOW! Great for you guys- more money and better hours. I’m looking forward to my tour of the house.
