The Front Garden

Well, my biggest 'work in progress' at the moment is the front garden.

Just to remind you, it started out like this:

I tried to make it semi-respectable:

And now Martin has put in all my paths.

And here's the view from above, now that I've dug it over.

Next, to plant the topiary...

One week in

Work has started, and the builders seem to be in almost every room, destroying as they go. I know this is how it will seem for a while before things start to come together again, but see what I mean:

Grand Entrance

Storage  for various things, and the downstairs cloakroom excavations....

 

Dining Room

Study

Very much another storage room, but see, the shower enclosure has now gone...

Kitchen

And here the serious destruction is getting started:

while the new kitchen cabinets reside in the sitting room. 

The Old Kitchen

...is yet another storeroom...

...and upstairs work is starting on ceilings and floors.

Main bedroom

Guest Bedroom 1

Guest Bedroom 2

...and finally

Bathroom

So not much is going on in the utility and shower rooms, but nowhere else is left untouched.  I'm glad I'm not living there yet (thank-you Vicki).

The plumbers start this week, more excitement.  I'll keep on posting.....
