Wow, thank you so much, it has been really tough, but the end is in sight. It’s beginning to look like what we’ve seen in our heads for years! Not to worry, soon as I’ve got the floor laid the joiner will be back for all the internal fittings (skirtings, doors and things) and then will be fitting the kitchen.
@skinny cheers bud, if you get any pictures of your neighbour’s land I’d love to see!
@Dexter thank you, and we got super lucky with that furniture, my mum and dad moved to a smaller place and it wouldn’t fit in their new room..
@stevo_com I’ve surprised myself to be honest! And dad has been a huge help. The tiles all being irregular has definitely been useful for it not looking too erratic.
Been cracking on, one more day of my folks being here and I genuinely think we’ll finish it! Have a bunch cut which will finish the porch, the bathroom and into both bedrooms that we’ll put down first thing tomorrow. Then all that’s left will be a line in front of the window and around the stove!
My mum got some of the grout down where the fridge will go and sealed the tiles in the utility room. We’ve decided the grout is much too light so I’m ordering some more which will match the limestone much more closely. Feel the light grout breaks it up too much and looks messy when it sticks in the pitted edges and a darker grout will make it seem like a more continuous space.

Really coming together now. Been dipping in to this thread ever so often and I'm in awe of what you're achieving. Can't imagine the strain it must be putting on you both but looks like it's really paying starting to pay off.
Not sure I could sleep well a door-less bedroom though!
