I'm looking forward to the episode where the house brain malfunctions, locking all the doors and windows, and the famously child-averse 99 has to lead a band of precocious schoolkids through the ducts to reboot the system before they run out of air

Right these oak beams have been nothing but hassle and I'm out of funds. Hit 1000 invoices this week!

So I've decided to sell them on ebay.

Just need to get them all packaged up

Protecting stuff from the plasterers? I bet they somehow still manage to get plaster on them.

lol. yeah, you have seen through my ruse.

I think my wall protection will fall almost immediately if it hasnt already blown away. But I'm somewhat confident on the oaks.

I suck at wrapping, so pretty pleased with myself, but then I've only ever really done it pissed up late at night on xmas eve.

lol. Theyve left rather a bigger mess than that. I had to use the digger to remove the three grab bags worth of wasted plaster they'd left out the front. I dread to think what thats worth.

Plastermen in the big room



Scratching up my big walls



and long





Still weirdly into their emotional support buckets



then final pinking





getting done on the bifold wall with the undercoat too.



Theyve done it all in a kind of weird order... But who am I to question. other I suppose than the person paying for it all

Like 2/5ths ceiling done. 2 of the walls already finished but one not? Whatever I guess



looks nice



I look at this image and I kind of feel strange like my beautiful Frankenstein wiring system did nothing wrong, it was just reaching out to connect with the world and now, now its been entombed forever in some sort of plaster coffin. stuck forever to provide me with my perverted electronic dreams



Lol its a bit weird though. Like, do the plasterers have favourites? Or does the wiring play mind games with them?

Take for instance this before photo



the kitchen area sockets on one wall. and after



notice a difference? but why?

Eksewhrere they do a surprisingly neat and tidy job. beyond expectations



so all done with the expensive undercoat plaster. weirdly, these leftover bags have been moved next to the front door....



Had to have a word. They can be bought of me. not taken. We'll see how that turns out

Came in this weekend... Wet patch



directly under the chimney



Yeah the whole place is trying to sweat out the moisture from the plastering. Getting stuck in the chimney, condensing and falling back down

Yeah.

I did for all the previous rooms. but my power is on an extension lead at the moment so I trailed it in through a skylight window.

But I also went in the loft and manually set the valves for each zone. So I'll have to crawl back up there and reset all that. But yeah youre right I need to do that

It is a conceptually interesting question - when does it become a house that requires airflow as designed, and stop being a building site?

well the moisture I'm trying to suck out is building site moisture, so I'm sort of perverting the house ventilation system to do it. But I'm not against it

doesn't plaster crack if you dry it out too quickly though?

probably.

The ventilation system, despite everyones ideas, isnt like a loving high powered vacuum system that can suck the atmosphere out of a room to murder the occupants. annoyingly.

In the previous tooms they did want the windows open to let the moisture escape. But its got kind of colder and wetter in the last couple of weeks...

so...

as usual.

no idea

But with the infinite power of the vacuum at your fingertips, you could just suffocate anyone who comes to investigate too! The bodies won't even stick up the house in the lack of atmosphere.
