Building pack received today

The draft final (if you see what I mean) spec/building drawings pack plopped fatly onto the table today - so our homework tomorrow is to go through them all and make a list of any changes we require... Rather disappointed that we haven't heard from Planning yet - contrary to my earlier post, it's actually Tuesday when the statutory 2 months are up so we hope to hear maybe on Monday. Today we've been taking advantage of the sunshine to get outside - Alan's wrestled the last bit of the front hedge into submission - or possibly the other way around! Even more importantly, I've put some hooks up so we can mount the fairy lights on the front of the bungalow. Next door has set the standard - as Dan is director of a lighting company who design and install lighting systems for shops such as Harrods, we're not going to beat that, but the trusty twinkly lights will go up shortly. Meanwhile the other next door have invited us round for dinner tonight so we're off to don our party frocks.
