This blog has been set up to record the restoration of Ashgrove, which was devastated by fire in August 2007.
Please add comments of encouragement (or even suggestions for the colour of the walls, carpets, tiles, furniture....!!)

Everything's gone!

Paul was over here this morning and he and Mum had a useful session with Andy.

After lunch I went with him and saw the remarkable transformation with 'everything gone' and the lads seemingly just scraping off old wallpaper. They have certainly had a good clear-out, and future possibilities are apparent.

It is very encouraging after 7 months of frustration. It will not all be plain sailing because of new equipment decisions etc. but there seems to be genuine co-operation from Andy. At his request we have given him our suggested power plug needs to pass on to the electrician, and a kitchen supplier was there this morning talking to Mum.

I think (as I suspected) she is going to be rather bewildered with so much to be decided so quickly. It takes her a month to buy something simple from M&S!

Look at the slideshow here and see if you can recognise the rooms. Then come back and add a post with your reactions!
