Fixing Stage - Check, Timber & Carpet - Check, Final Invoice - Check

Things are moving very, very fast now! As expected, the invoice for the Fixing Stage did come soon after the enclosed stage - the next day in fact! In the week from then to now, we have also received a letter letting us know that the end is only a few weeks away and that we need to start to look at ordering the final bank cheque.

To that end, the deck has been arranged, the driveway has been tentatively mapped out (without the driveway earthworks we wont be able to drive into the house!) and key furniture - bed, sofa, etc - has been ordered.

In the last week we have seen the render started to the front, some of the external electrical work started and most importantly, the carpet and the timber floors laid. We were quite apprehensive about the floor selection as it has been over two years since it was chosen and we couldn't quite remember what we picked and why. We were just hoping that our choices back then still reflect our tastes now. Thankfully, we are still very much loving the choices we made!

Here are the latest pics.
