Hi Everyone,
I was all excited that work was starting and about to post when the other site went down!
Anyway, finally work has commenced. There is a house to demolish before I start work on the new one.
As I suspected the disconnections of gas and electricity have taken way longer than they should have and so they have been working around the house for a few weeks and done the interior strip out. Gas is disconnected and electricity is supposed to happen on Friday. Let's hope so.
