Well, after the demise of my old 3dr, or 'project tri-door' as i called it was was wrote off 10 minutes after being fully road legal and 95% finished - i (read the wife) had had enough of me fucking about with cars and spending loads of money on them...
So, with 2 kids and a 3 bed semi we have found there is not enough room...
the missus wanted a conservatory, but im not one to fuck about so said bollocks to that and planned an extension... one thing led to another and its now a bloody big extension lol...
im only hoping that this wont take 5.5 years to finish lol.
so some pics:
the house as it was
existing plans
proposed plans
the demolition of the garage and utility room commenced the other week
lifted all the block paving
im not sad but while doing it i counted 1260 blocks, and a fuck load of dry stone wall
got the roof off last weekend
and then yesterday the rest was down!
local farmer had all the bricks, saved me a good £500 on skips etc
and the finished result is a big driveway lol
so thats where we are now. the guys excavating the foundations should be in within the next week hopefully, so then its fill with concrete and get the brickies in!
the missus is regretting it already lol. i did say ill just rebuild the garage then and buy an ultima GTR to put in it with the cash.... she then said to carry on with the extension
