May the 4th be with you....The work begins

May 4th 2009.  The great news is that work has begun.  We arrived home from work to find one skip full of stone and rubble.  The back of the house has had the wooden windows removed at ground level, and there have been some other stones removed and most unfortunately two unforgiveable holes cut into our lovely old ceiling.  

Ok, we know that these can be repaired, but the fact that these have been made has really annoyed us.  We have expressed time and again that this needs to be preserved.

Strong words will follow tomorrow for sure, to back up the email that has already been sent.  

We are still unsure about the company who has quoted on the bathroom fittings, so the general feeling is not fully positive.

Oh well.  No need to dwell, but we are happy that work has begun.
