All the brickwork is now complete along with the first fix for the electrics lights and five double sockets which we hope is enough but no doubt there will be a couple of trailing extensions in use once its all up and running.
the gas pipes for the central heating either side of the French doors are ready for the radiators and valves to be fitted got to use a freeze pack to freeze the water in there radiators to avoid having to drain down the whole system which will save time , as i have never seen this done i am quite intrigued.

The sleeper walls for the joists are in place and i think the joists will go in once the build is weather proof to the outside elements, the plastic and glass starts is to be fixed this Tuesday , i am not sure how long this will take but i cant it seeing be too long as its more of just fit and fix and it is all pre-made in the factory as long as the measurements are ok then it should all fall in to place.

There is the box guttering to do and the roof is all in sections and should be pretty straight forward the rest of the brick work on the porch will done tomorrow as long as the weather holds.

The concrete foundation is already in place and half the cavity wall is built to the finish level of the existing windows as pictured left had to move the outlet for the dryer but was no big deal i reckon another 3 to 4 weeks and we should be all done and back to normal .
