Day 30 - Outside Done!

Today's major milestone was the completion of the external part of the build. We now have the full set of ridge tiles and dormer guttering, finishing off a very impressive looking roof. The window surrounds are now in place as well, and just finish things off nicely.
All the doors except the original bathroom now have replacement doors - very nice looking oak veneer fire doors from Distinctive Doors. The bathroom still needs a little bit of work before the frame for the door will be ready to be fitted. 

It's looking like we've got a couple more days of work needed now, so hopefully all complete by Tuesday night. We've started painting already though. The base coat in the office was done a while ago, and the bathroom is now undergoing the same treatment. That just leaves the main bedroom, but as it is still the workshop for a few more days, it's going to be a few days before we can get any paint on the walls in there. We're hoping to get the base coat done in the bathroom tomorrow (Saturday) evening, and then maybe get the first "proper" coat of paint on the ceiling over the next few days.
