Well in between the nightmare rain showers a little bit has happened.

Day 11 & 12

We are now up to window height and the pillars are getting up to approx 6ft, all the walls are double skinned more or less all around, the weather is really starting to hamper things-

More blocks have been delivered







Sure is bloody wet, seems the floor is level though




To be continued, albeit slowly with this bloody weather

Day 13 & 14

Well a bit more has been done, the cavities have been filled with insulation and the walls are now at the height required (exterior wise) few more days doing the internal brickwork and I think we will be starting on the roof.

A few pictures-




Windows, I assume there will be some brick work over the top of these or at least on course of bricks



Well this is a part of the back wall of my garage the painted wall you see will be coming down eventually, at the minute the gas and electric metres are on this hence the reason it's still standing, this part will be a study and a utility room with a toilet.



As you can see though the external and internal walls on this part are about finished and the insulation has been fitted In between the walls, the porch wall is also up to height and insulated.




Well that's about as far as its got, brickwork wise, the far end exterior wall needs the internal part finishing and the internal back wall also needs finishing, other than that we are about there with the brick work.

A structural engineer now has the plans as I have asked for the roof trusses to be as minimalistic as possible so I can have good head height, hoping to be able to fit a two post lift if possible, if not at least a lift that can lift a vehicle to waist height.

Yeah that's the same kinda thinking I had, only reason it might be worth checking is if one can't fit it might be worth getting an RSJ put across in a suitable place where you could hang a decent pulley so you could lift engines out without a crane?

That was my second choice, but obviously needs a steel across rather than wood, although that'd be funny to watch.
