Not much going on with the foundations at the moment. Now that the concrete has set they are removing the wooden shuttering. At the back they've dug a short narrow trench in the garden to hold the pipe which will connect the extension's plumbing to the main sewer.
Meanwhile, the impact of the work is starting to make itself felt in the original house. The window openings were measured for refitting yesterday. The cupboard under the stairs, accessed via the original kitchen, has been knocked through and the space under the stairs is being examined for conversion into a WC. This will entail the biggest bit of building work in the original house: the moving of the existing wall between hall and kitchen further to the back of the house to create extra space under the stairs.
I think our days of having any sort of kitchen at all are running out fast.
