robgraham coughed up some electrons that declared:


Your late nights sound like my father who bought an old Scottish house
near Edinburgh in 1953, and would come home from work, have his tea
and then travel 12 miles to work on the property which had nothing
done to most of it since the 1750's. It took 4 years to make it
partially habitable. Childhood memories of walking across open floor
joists and pulling cables through conduits.

Good for him, I bet in the end he was chuffed.

I've got until next September to make this place habitable on the ground
floor (meaning decorated and finished).

Mine's about 10 miles away, which is a pain when you get there and find
you've forgotton something (did that Saturday |-)

I nipped down this morning to see the builders. Good job too as I'd
overlooked a 2-way light switch on a wall which is coming down and was
still live. Old CU now switched off for the moment.

Cheers
