Up early
End of a lovely week 'camping out' in the cottage. Relaxing as it could be with lots of fit and finish decisions to make. Up early to pack the house into the storage container. (Couldn't quite believe how much stuff you can accumulate in 7 days.)
Camping out in Halfpint
Still lots to do, but enough done to camp out for a few days in Halfpint. And by "camping" I mean something a little more luxurious than the brick tent camping we did before all the work started.
Can you see the sea?
If you lean out of the window.
And if you consider the estuary the sea.
Hence Halfpint is Halfpint and not "Sea View".
Shed transforming
The shed like thing (and occasional dog shelter) is slowly transforming into a studio space.
The roof has been rebuilt (using the slates that weren't broken from the gable wall of the house). New windows and doors. Radon sump because, well because despite this architects apparently architect. Gable end rebuilt and lime rendered. Tanking in place ready for new floor next. Then internal partitions, first fix, second fix and decoration.
Will it be done before the end of the year? Guesses in the comments below…

Two Doors
Front Door: step mosaic checking. Will they fit?
Rinsing Wetsuits
Outside water. How posh. Makes rinsing wetsuits easier (with fewer puddles up the stairs).
House Progress
Progress, progress, progress 🤩. Still lots to go to finish, but it's come a long long way.
The project update
A little update on the project. It's going to be a little bit more work than we thought; some of it is showing the wear and tear of 300+ birthdays.
Window Sill
The lemon geranium is pondering whether to recover from being left alone with the curtains closed.
