Final updates

So we still have a few outstanding projects which we slowly but surely are getting through. 

For instance, the stairs. Before... 

Yeah, pretty crappy huh.

Then, add Mark the Builder 
plus a little (or a lot) of help from his friend Howard

 and the result is..

 Yeah! That's what I'm talkin' about!!

Some of you asked for more shots of what the house in finished state looks like. Well okay then, here's a final impression. 

New custom-made cupboard in our bedroom

Ziggy's bed

The study

A good place to work.

Then, the young master's bedroom

 And the mademoiselle's.

The 'receiving room' (as one of our visitors called it),

also with a nice, huge, hand-made cupboard

Ziggy's lounging area

(and play area)

And the heart (or tummy) of the house

And finally, just so you don't think Jos built all this on his own... this was what our dining room table looked like on an average Wednesday lunch time throughout the month of January.

And just consider that 2 of the people who were there this day are not even featured on this picture. 

Notice the foreman sitting there in the middle, just as tough as all the rest of 'em. 

Okay, that's all folks, for this blog anyway. You want to see any more? Better come visit!
