It's still going, just about! I've been working away for the last 5 or 6 weeks, and the 7 day weeks have taken their toll!
But, yeah, good amounts of movement since my last posts. With the exception of the bathroom (Which I just can't justify / afford to do as part of this) every single ceiling and stud wall came down. So, with the sole exception of the bathroom ceiling there's not a single bit of original lath and plaster, or indeed any old plasterboard (The kitchen had been overboarded in the past).
Upstairs was all chased out and the main electrics ran, and it's now been all boarded and plastered. Finally got some paint on this weekend and the difference is just staggering. All of sudden the upstairs looks like it might just be liveable! I'm pretty bad at taking work photos, but I've uploaded a handful to the album:

(They're out of order, so scroll down below the original Estate Agent photos)
I'll take some proper photos when I'm next in, because I really am chuffed to bits to see the upstairs looking like a show home, instead of so tired.
We also got in new double glazing windows on the front (couldn't afford all the way around), and the difference with the bay windows is massive. The old ones had horrid plastic trim everywhere, which were mainly covering big huge holes. The bays were freezing and noisy, but now they're absolutely mint.
Other than that, we had the fireplaces knocked out and liners put in. I've got some guys coming in on Friday to replace our original lead water pipe and bring us off the shared supply with next door, and the sparky is coming to check on downstairs. So, hopefully we'll be able to get some of the downstairs ceilings up this weekend and get the plasterer back.
Still a lot to do, but we're definitely making progress little by little each weekend!
