Meanwhile, the digger cleared the site and cleared off, and three holes were dug under the original house to find out what's holding the thing up.
Unfortunately this appears to be reinforced concrete piling the whole way. The engineer doesn't reckon there's any alternative method that's guaranteed to keep the new extension afloat. He's done up a couple of options and sent them to the builders for pricing. We won't know for sure until Friday, probably. It's not looking good and definitely not looking cheap.
I've no idea if we'll see any builders until this decision is made. I can't think what they'll do.
Take their stuff home, maybe...
