So here, as promised, are the pics of the back of the house - No more raccoon hotel under a mouldy deck and no more waist-high weeds either. Everything, including a half buried rusty old swing set, made it into the full-to-brimming skip. As usual there were suprises; like the deck's rottten support beams that are actually tied into the brickwork, and the bee's nests in the siding. After all that, David is bruised and achey and Graham claims he was hit by a train.
There are more suprises to come, just part of the joy of older an older home. I know, it's not a Victorian, but even a sprightly 43 year old can have some issues. Take a look at all the 'before' pics in The House Project gallery to do a quick compare and contrast. Oh, and why do you think that the upper windows still have their original aluminum frames and glass and then new vinyl windows on the inside? Strange.
