  • No problem - I’ve been in a similar position and it was shit. I’m glad things are still progressing, keep the updates coming!

  • It can be such a rollercoaster can’t it, very exciting parts but very low lows.. no other option but to keep going I guess.. mum and dad are up again which is always really productive but just reassuring too. Mum was filling and sanding all the mail holes in the door surrounds and dad and I started on making the kitchen cabinet doors. Just 3 more to go tomorrow and we can start on cladding the frame behind the kitchen island. They’ve all to get perfectly squared off and things, but that will come when we’re getting the sanding and oiling done.

    @Howard @stevo_com That’s a great heads up, thank you very much for that! She’s a sneaky thing and has ruined a couple plants using them so I wouldn’t put it past her. I swear some of our tomatoes our first year here had an ammonia aftertaste..

  • There are citrus based sprays that can help (not for ours, though). But as long as it's removable/replaceable should it become an issue that's the main thing. Also just making sure she has access to her normal method of going to the toilet will help (again, it didn't help ours - outdoor cat who for years has never used a litter tray, had no problem actually being outside here, but still insisted on condemning the shower even further. And then the front door mat, and then the temporary carpet we put down).

    If it does become an issue, the only thing we found to remove the smell was Hydrogen Peroxide. Worked wonders. You only need the 3% solution and easily available in spray bottles. Thinking about it, the smell of that may have actually been what ultimately put her off.

  • That wood kitchen is going to look lovely.
    But FYI the brace is the wrong way around, it should be like this
