Oops, more problems

The Cheese Grater is falling apart, one of the window panes cello out last week. A year ago or so they had to replace a large proportion of the bolts they use to hold the damn thing up due to a few of them failing.  Jeez!  Luckily this one fell onto more glass.

Another big building going up

This one's by Fenchurch Street Station. It's amazing how deep the foundations are.

I was chatting to our kitchen builder yesterday and he was telling me that there was a good foot of space under our floor boards. I guess you need a bit of space for all the electrics and pipes.

April thinks two weeks to go so expect invites for dinner parties to follow shortly. Not having a dining area for the best part of 5 years has really hampered us on that front.
