I've just realised it's only 2 months...

...since they really started. It barely seems possible that all this has been done in eight weeks. There is a bit of a lull at the moment whilst the first floor screed thoroughly dries. Not as big a lull as there will be in August when all work will stop for the summer holiday.  The problem is what stage we will be at by then. Tradesmen will not want to start something that doesn't have a natural break. For instance, the roofing people won't want to be half-way through come the big shut-down. Hey-ho.
