arrived with the first load of sand for backfilling the trenches but offloading to the land was not an option.  The 9 metre lorry could not get in through the gates and electrical and telephone lines at high level prevented the crane from loading over the wall as we had done at Le Chai.  The only solution was to offload it to the roadside in front of our neighbours land.  No problem.  However it will mean manually wheelbarrowing all the sand into the site for the trenches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, the downstairs rooms was finally emptied of all stone.  Only tiles to go now. Oh, and dismantle the little wall that both I and the builder missed in the quotes.  Made a start removing the floors above the  on the upper and lower mezzanine levels.  These also need to come down (and be burned) before the builder starts.  Am I running out of time?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"411\" src=\"https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0737.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-411\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Stone gone<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" data-id=\"414\" src=\"https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0740-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-414\" srcset=\"https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0740-scaled.jpeg 2560w, https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0740-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0740-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0740-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0740-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0740-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">to here<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"412\" src=\"https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0738-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-412\" srcset=\"https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0738-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0738-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0738-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0738-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0738-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Upper mezzanine floor started.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" data-id=\"413\" src=\"https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0739-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0739-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0739-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0739-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0739-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/15rsb.xsxtc.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_0739-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">both sides<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With planning permission secured and the builder organised I need to get on with the installation of the underground services and to remove the first floor, all of which was agreed with the builder.
