I'm not sure whether it is wise to blog about today's drama. So far this blog has been solely devoted to good news and progress, but today was what can only be described as a bad day, and my feeling is that it is best to share our entire journey, the ups and the downs alike.
The wall along the side of our property that makes up the kitchen, the computer room and the store cupboard, backs onto bare earth and we have had some problems with damp. Today we discovered the true extent of the damp and were forced to rip out a lot of the last couple of week's work, back to the brick and start over. We undid all the tiling of the walls, the painting, the plasterboard, the kitchen fittings, the floor tiles. We learnt the lesson of what took months to assemble, takes just hours to demolish. It was really tough for the whole team, but amazingly spirits seemed to remain relatively high, I'll will keep you posted as to the reintroduction of progress as it occurs. Signing off, Lily.
