Day 46 - 15.04.09

I haven't written for a while! The gutters were put on yesterday - I think it looks good, don't you? There was a consideration to let the water run off on the grass, on the other side at the last pillar, but in winter it might make quite a hole as there will be some volume of water coming down.So now the downpipe is on the outside, next to the blue door and it will just run over the paving to the street. Alan thought it might have looked neater being on the end pillar in the garden, but he also had his doubts about just letting it run on the grass.

Last night the bathroom window/hole was just blocked up with a piece of wood and today by lunchtime the window was already in place. They are now busy plastering it and the shower floor is also almost done. The edges (down the side) of the staircase in the apartment have also been plastered and the painter is painstakingly busy fixing all the unevennes.

Tomorrow between 3 and 4 the first interested people are coming to have a look at the house...
