Two large beams from the floor

G&T with her sails


large lorry with concrete beams and other manly things!



A pully for something

walls come tumbling down


J on scary ladder trying to hook up something to help lift the concrete beams when they arrive


K taking a bash at the last plastered wall - it's coming down

More sitting room destruction


Nice stone walls

Last bit to come off




No idea, but it's not mouse....and there was a little "nest" with chicken bones and biscuits in! Hope it's not a rat...?





It's all coming down

Sitting room being torn apart!


Coco being sensible and keeping out of the way...


J taking a rest from floor board lifting



Nearly all up...scary hole and full of dust and a real mess




Bookshelves in our hallway blocking the door to sitting room - better to block it off in case we forget it's a large hole and a big drop.





Stove going into storage

The end of an eventful Sunday

So she recovered on the terrace in Cachou's bean bag

K in there with the elite!! ha ha.....


All set to go, it was a very very hot morning, not a bit of shade during the whole 10km. But finished, and not last. 1.03.17 which was about a second better than my attempt in 2007.
