A productive day


Today was a very good day.  Ilya (a friend) came around and offered his services. We decided to tackle the laundry, which entailed draining and removing the boiler, removing the bath, and demolishing the shower.  We achieved these tasks, along with removing the fitted cupboard and door plus its frame from the room which will become the guest bedroom.

I then started on the kitchen cupboards upstairs.  These I removed in quick time, and threw them down the stairs to soften them up.  IIya was busy in the kitchen.  We had some detective work tracing the plumbing back to the mains, but after some time we drained the kitchen boiler and removed the sink and boiler unit together.  

We are making sound progress, and next Saturday will allow us to remove the upstairs bath, and the stove and boiler unit.  This should leave our demolition tasks to rubbish removal and wood chopping.
