I did my usual Saturday morning trip up to the house... It's my favourite start to the weekend. Haven't run into any neighbours for a while though (although I'm expecting a notice to fence very very soon by the looks of the house next door.

The render has gone on which highlight that front bay nicely. It will be painted in Dulux Toffee Fingers very shortly. The kitchen and bathrooms and laundry now have their cabinets installed and I'm really pleased with my choices. I was so worried about the Seductive Ligna as I started to have second thoughts that it was too busy - but it's come up really well (I can even forgive the non matching horizontal grain in it).

I still can't believe the perspex overhead cabinets come as standard in Carlisle - considering most of the other major builders don't even include overhead cabinets at all.

  5. I was expecting it to go on for months and months... I nearly died when Dad came home and told me the frame was up before I'd even laid eyes on the slab.

    I think it has a lot to do with me being the only house they're building in the North at the moment (well aside from their own display homes which should be starting soon) and an incredibly switched on Building Supervisor...
