We had some great help today - Eric came with some likely lads from Rendlesham and they raced ahead getting the last, biggest, windows in. We are so grateful to them for taking a day out to help us - these windows were so big they needed four strong men, one on each corner. Nina came too, for a chat and to offer technical help and we had seven round the table, which is about all it can handle, at lunchtime. So a good time was had by all. Now the house has got all its eyes in and looks a lot better. The doors have to wait for new thresholds but they don't actually have to be lifted, just swivelled up, so R thinks they will be a lot easier.


This is the bottom of the biggest window on the south side - the dining table window. It had to be made in two parts because of the weight.



One.... two... three... heave! From the inside...........



............. and from the outside



Have we got it right?..........

The final result, from the cooker to the settee, looking over the dining table



Well-deserved builders' tea and biscuits for all. It was a good day.
