Friday saw the putting in of 1/2 of the floor in the loft bedroom and all of it in the en-suite. Saturday, we went to a wedding, in Wimbledon and the reception in Richmond. Sunday we went to pick up the bathroom stuff for the en-suite and buy the stuff for the main bathroom. Hung over bathroom shopping is the best way to do it; there's no vacillation around choices because you just want to get home and snooze/drink tea/eat bacon sandwiches. And the rest of Sunday was spent clearing out the bathroom and kitchen so that the 2nd and 3rd building crews can do their thing.
This morning, the 2nd building crew (the ones doing the bathroom maneuver) turn up. But they can't do anything because the 3rd crew (the plumber who will be removing the old and fitting the new boiler) is MIA with no idea of when he will actually show up. So when we raised concern about there being 2 crews for the whole job and whether they would be joined up enough, we really didn't see it coming that there would be 3. We knew they'd need to talk to each other, but it just didn't get organised by the building company.
Given how well it has gone so far (the extra 4-5 inches in the loft and the sufficient pitch in the soil pipe to get away with no macerator) it shouldn't be all doom and gloom. I guess we'll find out at this week progresses.
