We've got upstairs rooms!

Things have been developing pretty quickly over the past few days. The building contractor has focused his guys on getting the back of the house done first so that in the event that we have to move in early or that the work is not finished on time, then we at least have somewhere to live while they finish the front of the house.

To prove it, I've posted some more pictures below:



From left to right, starting top left: this is the upstairs bedroom wall, with Flo peeping 'round the corner; the next one is the entrance to the bathroom and to the right is the entrance to the toilet; the third one is the toilet, a little bit bigger than we anticipated after asking the building contractor to push the wall into the bathroom a little extra; the fourth one is the shower cubicle, where the first building error occurred... notice that the drain is a bit randomly placed when it should be flush with the near wall (but don't dispair, we're fixing it at great expense!); the fifth one is the fitted cupboard in the upstairs bedroom, if we use the full height there's much more space than I anticipated; the sixth one is the entrance to the bathroom, looking back from the bathroom (I'm looking forward to a bit of exhibitionism); the seventh one is the stairwell, just need some stairs (we're working on it); the eighth one is the upstairs corridor, looking back from the bedroom, strangely it seems much lighter now that the wall is in; the final one is a picture of me trying out the new toilet, attempting a figure of eight.

Also this weekend, Flo's been busy trying out a couple of the colours from the pallette to see how they look on the walls in the house. Inspired by the existing green walls which we dearly love, we've been trying out some other shades.


I feel another poll coming on...
