Evening.

 

If anyone has a spare head I could buy this one appears to be permanently damaged from yesterday's drinking.

Good afternoon folks

 

Pretty sure I've not mentioned it, but me and my fiancee put an offer in on a house. And it was accepted!

3 bed semi-detached, right near to where I live currently, quite literally within half a mile. Missed out on one house, which had a double garage, which was gutting, but then again the entire house needed gutting and I wouldn't have had the budget to do it quickly. 

 

This one, I'll be building a 8-9 meter garage down the side of the house and then demolishing the old pre-fab one. So I'll have more space than a single garage hopefully. There's scope to do a loft conversion in the near future as well, I might look at doing most of that myself. 

 

 

Make sure your loft conversion has a hoist for lifting engines in and out, I mean, that’s what it’s for right?

Congratulations. I hope you exchange smoothly, make sure they have appointed a solicitor.

The loft will be my personal man cave, so during winter I would look to take some bits up there definitely... Wouldn't tell the mrs though :lol: 

Garage extension will be where I need to put all my effort, hoping to get the footings and floor put in by a pro as groundworks can be a bugger if you need pilings. Aim is to be able to extend part way over the garage in 10 years or so, and turn the 3 bed house into a 4 bed with large garage and bigger garden (old garage will free up 16sqm of space). Ironically I'd probably then sell it then! I feel like there's a "final" house yet to come.
