Solicitor called this afternoon to say he's completed the transfer on the barn - whoa-hoa, it's ours at last!
Asbestos can now be removed; fortunately they did't turn up today - they're coming next Weds.
Now we can get on with the design; met the Architect there this morning and turned his ideas completely on their head. He's gone away to think about our latest suggestions - kitchen at the road end in an L-shaped extension, en-suite bedroom above the dining, large double height lounge, 2 en-suite bedrooms (1 up, 1 down) at the paddock end - and 2 separate staircases. Get those drawn up, then its back to the planners to see if they might accept it. Keep your fingers crossed.
We're gonna have a little toast with a tipple of champers tomorrow. Shaki, David & Michael (and Nicola & maybe even Lord Marley) are due to join us round a bonfire to celebrate our acquisition. Might even set off a rocket. Wheeeeee ... !
Can't upset the neighbours yet, though. Still got a land deal to close out.

This is hopefully going to be a record of the progress on our new project - converting a derelict stone barn into our new home.
