Roofer starts Thursday

Got a call from the roofer today to say they were coming Thursday morning at 8:30. Eight thirty, 8:30, it's a bit earlier than I'm used to, (several hours earlier if I'm honest), but it will be nice not to have to write about window frames anymore.

The original plan was for them to start at the back of the house, but because of the rain delay and me having finished the window frames (opps there I go again) they are starting on the front. This does mean I have to go shopping tomorrow to buy vents and extractor pipes ready to fit in the roof. These are to shift the waste gas produced by the septic tank and also from the ventilation from the kitchen and bathrooms. I'm putting them on the front of the house because I have Velux windows at the rear and don't really want odours blowing back inside.

These are my experiences of renovation and running a gite business in Brittany, France. A gite is the French equivalent of a country holiday cottage. French culture, language, taxes and bureaucracy. Find out about our gites using the links on the LHS. Stories about the road to this point will be added in due course. Renovation nightmares, builders, stress, etc. Stay tuned.
