It's Christmas Eve 2008. Time to wrap up work for a week or so and take a well-earned break! Simon was here first, very early - just as I left for work - and they were down to work straight away. We haven't been up there today, but they took some photos for us to show progress. The uprights for the purlin wall in the study are in place, and the rafters are tied together at the top. That really brings down the ceiling height, and defines the width we're going to have there. They've taken out the temporary supports and the old piece of wood that used to span the loft at chest height, getting in the way. So it's all open, if a little low.
They tidied up well and knocked off at midday. They've left it so that I can get in fairly easily for my aerial project (and to take a look!), but they've put the tiles back more securely than normal so as to avoid an leaks while they're on holiday. I think they're going to be away, so there won't be an option to call them in if we start getting drips through the bedroom ceiling. I'd better be careful putting those tiles back again! Here are some of the pictures they took:
