Aargghhh! It's getting close.

Tuesday evening:
last minute adjustments,
staying up late, thunder and lightning outside the caravan,
bricklayer coming Monday, stuff to order tomorrow,
how big are the blocks on the internal walls? - must ask the timber frame company,
the floor plate needs to be a few mm wider because we changed the sheathing board on the walls so the thickness of the frame changes,
we need weldable damp proof course and we haven't researched it yet.....

and so on and so on!!

General chaos, not quite major panic.

R is amazing - brilliant at all these fine changes.

Our bricklayer seems like a nice bloke and on Monday he's coming early so R has a chance to talk him through what needs doing. John put four nails, one in each corner, but these represent the outer corners of the base of the plinth, so the dimensions have to be adjusted as the actual concrete blocks are going underneath the walls and the plinth sticks out a bit from there.

Must order a Portaloo (mmmm... I wonder who cleans it??)
