Re: Our Big Build :-)


Wow! what a transformation, Emma The finished house looks lovely, you must be very pleased with all that extra space.

Looks like you're going to have weeks and weeks of decorating ahead of you

Re: Our Big Build :-)


Thanks Alex and Mags, we now have three bedrooms, office, living room, lounge, kitchen dinning room, cloakroom, ensuite and bathroom.

A bit of a leap from a two bedroomed home with a kitchen, dining and living room.

The cats have settled back in really well which I am pleased about.

Re: Our Big Build :-)


Did the upheavel upset Arthur and Bronwyn at all, Emma? I expect they thought they were moving into another new home when you returned .....I'm sure they remember your garden though

It's looking really good Emma - I love your new kitchen, we have the same door and cupboard handles as you, and the heated radiator in your lovely new bathroom is ours too by the look of it! Isn't it wonderful having all that extra room?

Re: Our Big Build :-)


Mags, we rented locally for three months whilst the build was completed and Arthur and Bronwyn settled into the rental really well. It was very funny watching them when we moved back as they seemed to know it was still their home (although only three of the original rooms remained (although all three were altered someway)

Arthur systematically went onto one room after another downstairs and then did the same upstairs, tail in the air, seemed to approve and then settled on the sofa...lol

Re: Our Big Build :-)


Angie, yes it is great having all of the extra room, although I keep losing hubby..lol

Kitchen is taking a bit of getting used to as I now have 27 cupboards to fill. We will have a black sparkle composite work top and oak flooring (the oak flooring cannot be laid for another 2 months as we had a new damp proof course laid, and it takes 3 months for the floor to completely dry) also 2 wine coolers still need to be ordered and fitted in the kitchen.
