It Works!

The lovely men left a couple of hours ago and I must say I will miss them. A nicer couple of guys, father and son, you couldn't hope for. Aye well when you work at home the company is a nice wee change.

Today they fitted the towel rail and finished connecting everything up, filled the system with water and tested it. WOW - these radiators are way more effective than the old ones and this is good for my toeses, the environment and our pocket.

They also bricked up the old fireplace and plastered the wall - this area puts the rest of the walls to shame with it's sleek, smooth, flat wall-like surface!

We still have stuff everywhere, bare floorboards and a sense of upheaval but there's a guy coming tonight to see about the next phase - kitchen replacement.

This is the all new set of pipes that connect all the radiators to the boiler... I snapped this before they put the floorboards back again.

A new wall! Getting rid of that fireplace is going to make such a difference to the whole room - not just because the thing was ugly, but in terms of space. I resisted the urge to write my name in the wet plaster...
