Wood and glass (part 2)

And so the glazing began, starting with the big back window:


From the inside:

Impressive, eh?

A couple of other windows have gone in too, like the little kitchen:


As well as the library:


More of the same tomorrow, with luck.

Meanwhile, the meeting with the electricians, scheduled for Monday, had to be pushed forward to 8am today. So I did some frantic scribbling on the drawings and passed them over to them this morning. It all appears to be in hand, though they won't be phasing the works, which means disruption and plaster dust is going to be a major factor from now until finishing up time. Whenever that is.

Finally, I think I've solved yesterday's oddity de jour. As part of the window-fitting project, the builders will need access to the upstairs area through the original house. Cutting out the upstairs opening into the extension on the landing is imminient, and the temporary door will be separating the new landing.

I do hope we'll have wall-cutting tommorrow. We're due.
