The video below shows the back of the house being built, from just after the work commenced, to the last image which was taken in the third week of December 2008.
Finishing Touches
The building process has now finished and the builders have left the house.
Lots of things still to do, like decorating, flooring and a kitchen, but all of that is down to us now.
Some pictures of the trip to Edinburgh in November 2008

Phase 3 begins- its a real breakthrough
While I'm here in India Fiona has sent me pictures and from them I can see that the main roof is now complete, so the main scaffolding has been dropped, the floor boards are down upstairs and the new walls have started to be formed.
The old utility room walls have been removed, and the breakthrough to the new upstairs has just started.
This picture of my Grandad and Great Grandad has been sent to me and I thought I would share it.
Just to prove that the weather is against us, look at this rain radar picture from today, the only place in the entire area to have rain !
