We've fitted LAP GU10 LEDs to or newly built utility & the light really is superb. http://www.screwfix.com/p/lap-gu10-led-lamp-with-reflector-330lm-5w/36891

Just to clarify it was not intended as a temporary fix, when I quizzed them about it they said it was fine, that was until I mention getting the building inspector in to check, then they offered to come & rectify. They were told under no circumstances was the original electrician to come in the...

Electrician allegedly.

The electricians working on the extension have added to the existing lighting circuit, I'd love people opinion on it.....

As much as it takes to do properly, £1000 or so I'm guessing.

On the homeward straight now thankfully. Colour coat goes on downstairs tomorrow, 2nd fix plumbing & electrical next week, floor tiled on 18th, the the conservatory starts. Garden is also well on the way to completion now.

Had a think about wheels & moved the slotmags on for a small profit. Have decided on these that I have bought on EBAY & just had them delivered. Tig tacking the frame together this evening for a trial fit of the folding arrangement.

We bloody marvelous. Despite my constant reminding them about MINIMUM room size of 3000mm, the plan stating 3060mm, numerous promises the room will be over 3000mm as we want a very particular kitchen layout....... yep it's undersize before they even plaster. They were going to wet plaster...

Massive airlock, caused by the ongoing building work was the diagnosis

They are re doing it, along a different route. The route I originally suggested. Plumber No 1 came out this morning & was unimpressed by what plumber No2 had don

Is this acceptable practice for an outside tap? At the far end it's T'd into the mains supply, then concreted into the floor of what will be the conservatory. I think it's a bodge, but am I being over picky?

Got up this morning, turned the shower on & after about 30s it shuts off. Builders have been in doing plumbing so assumed they had forgotten to turn something on so checked everything, all on. Hot water to all other taps, just nothing from the shower. 5mins goes by & again some water comes...

Upstairs room was plastered just before the weekend..... Really pleased with the room size

Had a fanny about taking some measurements to make sure the folding mechanism we have will fit. This frame will form the attachment points for the mechanism & effectively the 'keep out' zone which has to be kept clear to ensure unobstructed operation of the mechanism.

Finally the scaffold is down. Upstairs room being skimmed today.

I have no idea. It'll be fitted into what little spare time I have in the evenings after finishing designing/building the silly rocket car.....

We've been looking for a replacement to our faded sofa bed to go into the extension, not being able to find anything we really liked we sought some inspiration. We stumbled across by this sofa...... But not wanting some GRP moulded things that would fall apart on us we purchased...

Here's some quick pics.. The respray it's had at some point is terribly dry and orange peeled, it's kill or cure. I clayed the paint on the left rear 1/4 panel and attacked it with some Menz IP on a very hard polishing sponge I had knocking around using the Kesrel rotary...

A rare Honda too, given that it actually has character And there's only 200 or so left in the country

It's actually starting to look like a house now..... Spent the last few evenings putting in the cameras & cables for the CCTV
