back to basics...

Turns out that there was asbestos - the worst kind - all through the ceilings of our new home. So in came Andy and the boys (A1 Asbestos) to strip it all out. They also removed all the walls - as we could get a better (and smoother) result on the walls than the current masonite.

We now have a crazy timeframe - 10 working days over Christmas to: 

• have the asbestos / masonite removed 
• get the electrician in for initial rewiring (first fix)
• plasterers in for fitting and setting of the plasterboard
• finalisation of the wiring

Have given up on getting the floorboards and painting done - so we will live in our shell for a little while...
