Challenge Complete!!, we sold most of our land and Farm House! Enabling us to concentrate on Purl Design LLP - Sustainable Architecture and allow our guests to enjoy the peaceful retreat here at The Mill Cottages in either of our one bed cottages, along with our resident pets, ponies, chickens, goats, cats and dogs! We have spent the last year renovating the 400 year old mill for us to live in, completed late 2012 and love every minute!!!... We are looking forward to another successful year.

TILES!
We are on a very tight time line and the tiler was booked to start the tiling, only to find that the screed had popped in places and we had to dig it up and redo it, it was like sand under neath nothing was binding it and the underfloor heating in one part was only covered with 22mm of screed instead of what we thought was down there 65mm at least, then we found all our marks on the wall that should be covered in screed but were still there....OMG what a nightmare we had to spend over a £1000 on trying to make the floor as ok as possible...Pete was really really not a happy bunny...samples of the floor were taken and the screed was too dry when laid and too thin, but after throwing even more money on it the tiler was able to start tiling and worked day and night and stayed here just to get it finished, so thanks really appreciate it.....last bit to do tomorrow and then the kitchen goes in next week!!
