@boo Wow Boo, thanks for all the info, chapter and verse right enough🤣🤣 You could get a job with those people as a salesman🤣🤣 Seriously though, I think we might give it some thought and at least have an assessment…   Read more»

@sogoslotvvip Thanks 👍😃🎸

@boo Does the extra insulation just go in the loft or are we talking about tearing out the walls? Don’t think I could be doing with a major upheaval but then again, we are planning having some redecorating done this…   Read more»

@robin Lovely guitar Robin, that finish gives a nice sheen and brings out the grain.
Congratulations on a fine piece of work👍😃🎸

@robin Looks great Robin, well done!!👍😃

@nsj That’s pretty much what I was thinking, that insulation would be the key. We’ll stick with our oil fired CH for the present but would seriously think about making the change rather than getting a new boiler if the…   Read more»

@nsj Interesting to hear how the heat pump/solar panels have reduced your heating costs. A friend of ours is going to have the survey done to see if he qualifies to have the work done and we were thinking of…   Read more»

@liebe Thanks Dan, your suggestion of obeche could be a possibility, it appears that it’s lighter and softer than Poplar but not markedly so. Do you have any suggestions where I might be able to source it? I’ve been looking…   Read more»

@liebe Thanks Dan, having a rest for a while, at least until the weather is a bit warmer, then get going on the next one👍😃🎸

@russ Thanks Russ, bit on the heavy side but otherwise I’m well pleased with it. Going to have a look at the acoustic course but I think I’ll probably do another electric come the spring time.👍😃🎸
