Suddenly we seem to be in a sprint to the finish

On Thursday we eventually found the water pipe we have been sort of looking for for ages. It was 6 inches away from where my dowsing had said it was!! If only I had had faith in myself I would have extended the dig and found it. Instead we got Nigel and his JCB in to dig a huge trench. Never has anyone been so happy to see water spurting out of a water pipe!

The electricity is being installed next Tuesday, after 3 months of prevarication by Scottish Electric.The electrician will be in later this week to get ready for the great turn on.

Barry is back and he is fitting the kitchen.

Brian is laying blocks in his usual speedy manner. I have been trying to keep him in blocks from the pallet to his side but he takes some keeping up with. I now know how hard Grant works.

    So the kitchen is to be measured in 1/2 May’s or is that a but width measure?
    The place is looking great, and what work you have put into it yourselves – fantastic effort all.
