The man himself, Mr E_E is down tonight ... when the boss is down, it always means progress!!

So, we started off with a window, in its frame this morning.

(Would you believe - I haven't actually got a photo of it! But this is the best I can find:)




So, that had to come out!!




Needed to make the opening wider and taller in the main window. The other smaller window used to be a door, so E_E bricked that up ...



Needs building out, but was the best I could find to fit the gap!!


By the end of the day, we'd managed to coat the entire kitchen in a fine brick-coloured dust





But who cares ...


When you have windows in place!!!






Goooooooooooorrrrgggeeeeeooouuuussss!!

[bamby]

the more of those windows i see the more i them!

looks like a good days work there

[Bean]

Had another good day today - Managed to get the hole for the big window sorted - nice base, all level - Got the brickwork sorted out either side. It's ready to go in now! So think that'll happen tomorrow and it'll be fixed in place! We've also taken the level across and sorted the base for the small window - Also started working out how to do the archwork above. Also started to build out the wall each side for the small one.

Dusty again though, lol!



Bamby - Thanks! I love them, too - I'm so glad we chose these ones!

[sazal]

Lovely windows Bean Haven't you got this house finished yet!

[Bean]

Lol, no!!

Thanks, Sazzzzal! I really can't wait for the rest to come now ... once the windows are in, it opens up a whole load of new things that we can do, to push to get it all finished!!
