    ...yes I nearly had a heart attack when I got to the counter :eek:. It never helps when other people are spending your own money! (I was with my uncle who said - "get one of those, we'll need it". Though it's not all bad as all the work he's done so far has been for free! :D

    Yes, wouldn't spend that much on it! Will see if anyone has any on freecycle etc. Would rather the style/colour it is now so not going to paint it!

    Why slate/felt the roof Andrew?

    After a night of continuous rain, the logs are dry, whoopiee! :D
  • Hi Everyone, hope you're all well and renovations are plodding along nicely!

    We've pretty much finished now, just a couple of little bits and pieces and but our finale kitchen is done and looks beautiful if I do say so myself!

    Pics to follow on the blog once we're back from honeymoon! :)
