I am however astounded to have only found this out yesterday (Weds 3rd April) as our solicitor "forgot" to let us know last week that we had completed!! Therefore we spent the easter bank holiday worried and wondering.... I can only go on what people say but I never seem to hear anything positive at all about solicitors? Does anyone have a positive experience about conveyancing? And then they charge an astronomical amount of money in the process! Rant over...:-)
But we are thrilled that we can now finally put our plans into action, we are just about to appoint the building contractor and we have of course changed our minds many many times but we have finally decided to use the SIPS system and not timber frame
(if anyone is interested in what SIPS is here is a link http://www.claysllp.co.uk/ )
The first thing that will happen is of course the ground works, we are waiting to hear back from the planners for the go ahead!
So exciting times ahead - Something we are going to do (this weekend) is plant a Maple Tree. This in itself is exciting choosing the right variety and position - we finally have something tangible to play with!
We have had the privilege (for the second time) to house and dog sit for friends Ineke & John in Littleheath near Bromsgrove. It is an Eco house and has many of the benefits we intend to use in our build. It's a real treat to "try before you buy" and we have spent a week scribbling down even more ideas for our house! There is also a full on textile studio as part of the house so I have been utterly in my element! I have finished projects and started new ones, dyed, sewed and printed to my hearts content - exactly the kind of thing I needed before we commence our build...
So watch this space more closely now as I will indeed be blogging our progress regularly.. Here are a few interior inspirational photos to whet the appetites
Back soon....Wx
