Junk & dust

October 7, 2008

The work on the Glendale cottage has really started. All plasterboards are ripped out and tomorrow the partition studs will be removed. Upstairs and downstairs will be just one big space and we can start planning for a new layout.

I made a start with chiseling off the mortar from the walls. It’s been on there for years and you can tell. The whole downstairs is now covered in sand and pieces of mortar. The estimate is that the stripping down will take probably two more weeks. There are also some outside jobs that need to be done as well and although the roof looks good, we’re thinking of removing the old concrete tiles and replace them with Spanish slates.

Tomorrow it’s off again to Glendale. I will take some pictures to publish here later on. Believe me: it’s all junk and dust right now.
