Thanks Mark. Took a while to shake it off, all good now. Sledgehammers are so last year.. Weapon of choice, Dewalt 54 volt SDS Drill, set on hammer, with a flat chisel bit. A seriously good bit of kit, highly recommended. I pinged off the bricks and cleaned them up. James palletised them ready for selling. 1000 or so at a £1 each, he gets to keep whatever he makes, job done.

Got the acrows down after a bit of remedial work on the joists, really pleased with the space. Using hard hats as the previous owners (the council) knocked a hole though in the loft and left boulders up in the void. Found a skull breaker today when ripping down another ceiling just balancing on a joist.

I should have know that Mark.

Great effort Mike again, no stopping you now. Hard hats are trendy !!

Crikey that rock on the joist is very dangerous!

Fingers crossed hopefully cleared them all out now Duncan.

Opening from day space through to what will be the hall is quite the challenge. Very slow going, mostly sandstone with a couple of granite lumps strategical placed to cause us grief. There’s a flue built into the wall creating a void and some later mods done by the council so it’s a bit of a mess. Hole is now open and we’ve started to make good and install the bearing pads. Looking forward to getting it sorted and secure.
