It will, of course, shock everyone who has ever dealt with a builder to hear that they are running behind and won't be able to start until next week. Which isn't entirely expected, but is somewhat annoying, especially as I spent yesterday clearing my kitchen. No way am I unpacking all the kitchen boxes, so cooking this week is going to be minimalist! Oh well, it's too hot to cook, anyway. Perhaps this will be the major problem we encounter & everything else will go smoothly. I shouldn't say that, probably, or I'll jinx myself...

Oh yeah, and of course everything is getting delivered this week, so it's going to be a bit of a tight fit, once the appliances get here! Sigh.
