Since there is another on the way......... and that first born son is getting a little big for his 2mx2m box room it was finally time to get on with preparing his new room.
The plan is that the room formally known as "The Games Room" which in reality has been a store for all the toys I never get to play with will be spilt into 2 rooms. Being on the large side, it has also functioned as a domitory during family visits. It has also been deemed too big to be a single childs room. Splitting it in two will make 2 good size rooms, one for FBS and one as a guest room until it is required by no.2 in a few years time.
The first consideration when making a new room is that it will need a new door. Naturally where we are going to put the door something was in the way... Nothing other than the fuse box and all the cables going up and down the centre of the house. Here veiwed from the back after removal of panelling and planks.
After a Sunday without electricity and a very rare take out pizza for dinner it was moved to a temprorary location.
In the end there will be a new cable run from loft to basement on the left hand side of the new door and a new fuse box in the basement. Just as well, as it's now been decided that there will be another door, exactly where ther fuse box is in it's new temporary position.
