Day 96 - Tiling starts

The tiler arrived on site today & started with the wetroom floors. Looking good already, although there's obviously still some way to go yet. The walls have been marked out for the tile heights, so he should get after that tomorrow.
Joiners were busy outside today (it didn't rain for a change). They've now completed the cladding on the South & East sides, and have started on the West (facing the drive). This has also meant that the flashing has finally been installed at the base of the house round the hall & workroom areas, so we should finally see an end to water leaching in there during heavy rain.
Hassle of the day must go to Screwfix Flooring, who want a stunning £95.00 to cover delivery of some laminate flooring because they think Aberdeen is in the Highlands (indeed anything with an AB postcode). It's free otherwise. Really annoys me & will likely cancel the order just out of principle. They were probably surprised to find that I had a mobile phone given that South of Carlisle tends to think we live in trees up here !
