Well that’s experience for you

Well they are 30’s houses. What’s a couple of mm?!

Flat you plonker.

I found one in the garden this morning. They’re actually about 50mm. I just remember them being around the size of a 2” timber. Got them upstairs in my house, built off a 3x2 sole plate. Hardly any effort made to tooth them into the main walls so they flex a lot.

What’s the fascination with blue grit? You don’t need it, so fook it off. Wet it down and stick your boards on. Also, the block walls are about 40mm thick and not usually tied in to the main walls. Make sure they’re not flexing at the ends. A few angle brackets screwed an plugged can help...

No…he’s a vampire

Useful to know

Cut this down in the garden a few years back…still burning

Still leaning towards a fibreglass roof, but prob won’t be able to do anything for a few weeks now. Also trying to find a French door at a reasonable price, but prob just end up getting one made.

It’s coming a long, just very busy with other work at mo. Didn’t quite get to where I wanted too after last chat about it, so managed to get a few hours in at the weekend to finish roof timbers and get the OSB on. All sheeted up at mo. Ordered some fascia’s and soffits which will prob arrive...

Weather very changeable at mo, make sure you’ve got a good sheet to go over
