Update of other jobs
Well, months after we started DIY jobs we are still not finished but here are some photos of how the wall and fire place is coming along. We are waiting for the rendered wall out front to dry before I can paint it. Inside we have stripped back the wall and laid a cement and then slate base. We've still got to dig out all the mortar before repointing and scrubbing the bricks. We've also got a lovely piece of white American oak to cover the lintel. Trouble is we have got so used to snuggling up to enjoy the heat from it. Ah well, all work and no play.....!
