D-Day

Despite depressing delays, I was delighted to discover that our delapidated domicile has duly been demolished, driving me to declare today 'D-Day'.

yay! you must feel very relieved that that stage is over and now you can look forward to start building. How long did it take to demolish?

Yeah, really good to be moving on. The photo is after about 3 hours work - still some rubbish to be cleared on Monday. Feels strange to really see the size of the block with nothing on it.
