Temperature in Tenniken -7. Temperature in the house. -7. With these low temperatures Reggie and myself had to really keep moving to keep warm. We removed the remainder of the wood cladding from the ceiling revealing even more of the lovely old farmhouse ceiling. After removing all of the debris to the cattle stall we then paid some attention to the kitchen. Reggie attacked the cupboard under the stairs, and removed the panels that run up the side of the stairs. This focussed our thinking on the width of the stairs and the wall surface. We have a desire to expose the wall to show the original building. Reggie who is a daughter of a builder soon had the plaster away in a sizeable area to show what we can expect.
We also spent a couple of minutes trying to move the old cast iron stove. It just would not budge, so we have assigned that to the too hard basket. I will call a friendly neighbor and hopefully he will have some ideas. Whatever happens it will be gone this weekend, as someone has been lucky enough to buy it.
The afternoon was spent preparing the trailer for its MFK. A bit of paint and a small adjustment of the brakes should see it right, but who knows in good ol Switzerland.
On Thursday we meet our architect for a planning meeting, which we are really looking forward to.
