That was Monday. Today is Tuesday. No sign of our demolition men. Another call from the builders. There's a bit of a delay and they won't be turning up for a couple of days. Seems we're at the mercy of British Gas, who have to ensure that our supply is safely turned off before the building is torn down.

The days slip by and then just as I'm beginning to wonder where I put my camera, some men appear with heavy duty trucks and equipment and we're off!

Interestingly, I expected the house to be demolished from top to bottom, but as you can see from the photograph, the front section was sliced away first, rather like looking into a doll's house.
