Not much sleep at all last night. Combination of chest infection causing me to start coughing as soon as I lay down and the wind outside whistling around the roof, and howling down the chimney. Gave-up around 6:30 and came downstairs to Web surf.

I note that Big Dog Desiato (aka Sampson) spent the whole night in the back room, he seems to have decided that's his bed. Will be interesting to see what happens next time we have guests.

Illness has slowed progress in attic to a dead snail's pace. But here's my photoshop rendering of the window and the how it is turning out in reality.

Still lots to do, but the words of the house mantra is "It's getting there."

I keep thinking I should do a video on the hidden door I'm building in the attic, but there are already a few such vids on youtube and stopping to film everyother saw cut and hole drilled will slow up the work even more. So once I'm up to something above 50% in the wellness department, I may document the build with just photos.

Interesting to note that the new wooden sash windows are standing up to the wind very well. The curtains would have been billowing about all-over the place with the old UPVC windows. I'm marvelling at the static hanging curtain to wind outside ratio of 0-50. So I'm feeling vindicated on form and function now.
