List and grout

To make me feel the we are actually getting to the end of this, I've added a list of things to be done to the side panel. I'll cross those off as they happen, and add new ones I notice or think of. Here's hoping the list gets shorter rather than longer.

Anyway, it was a quiet one on site today. The tiler was back and grouted the bathroom walls (but not the floor) and the plumber has installed our shower.


Just about nothing else happened that I can see, other than the last bits of flooring in the hall.

This evening we went back to our kitchen people to make final preparations for the utility room. There are some potential stumbling blocks around the venting of the tumble drier -- getting the flex hose to turn at a sharp enough angle -- and the positioning of the sink. Nothing too difficult so long as the plumber is on board, we hope. We also gave them the rough plans of our dressing room for wardrobe design. So it's all good there, and if we're lucky we might have the utility units installed next week.

And lastly for today we called next door to see if they had recently installed any mass spectrometers or particle accelerators which might be the source of the whine and tick in our living room. They hadn't, and the sounds can't be heard on their side of the wall. This morning the builder switched off our mains power and the sounds remained; today he blocked up the chimney temporarily and the sounds remain. We're all stumped. It'll be high on the agenda at tomorrow's meeting.
