Building update - walls rising

Walls up to mid-window level - End of week 3
The project has really moved on again this week and it's almost hard to remember what it was like a week ago. The focus all through the week has very much been upon the walls, which are now up to head height and the internal walls have also been constructed to the same level. Weather's been pretty good again, just a bit windy early in the week, and some occasional showers. Can't complain for late November / early December. May the luck continue.
The plan is that the extension should be enclosed (i.e. a battened roof) by the time the builders break for Christmas / New Year, but that will largely depend upon whether the weather holds. Then once the roof proper is in place and the work has moved inside, we will be altogether less dependent upon what's happening with the elements.

For the week ahead: Work will continue with raising the walls and building above window height. The arches will need to be build over the windows and doors and hopefully the joists will go on late in the week.
Internal walls added
