More front wall and some underfloor/floor progress

The stone masons have been struggling away at the front wall for a couple of weeks now.  It is made of dark grey granite from Groß-Bieberau.  The granite is, apparently, a pig to work with.

Inside the underfloor heating has been laid and now the screed/Estrich has been poured throughout.  We are not allowed inside until the weekend so that it has a chance to set nicely.

A small scaffolding platform has appeared in the void at the end of the staircase.  I don't know why but at least it stops anyone falling though.

Allotment across the way

I was lucky enough to catch a photo' of my allotment neighbour just the other day.


She nearly always has something yummy to eat and drink and a garden full of visitors.  Lucky me.
