Rubbish, WindowHoles and the tao of DoorFrames.
Move boards and sarking out of house and pile up under house. Clean paint off window placed in ensuite then wander round inside windows scraping loose paint off then do same to outside of house as high as can reach.
Work gang continued to Gib kitchen. Peter got his chainsaw out and cut out the inner sarking where the kitchen window will go then framed up the lintel and studs for it while Jamie( the Joiner) took the window away to make a window frame for it.
Bob showed me how to take door frames out (we're goanna make them swing the opposite way off the hall so they open against the room walls). This involves using a saber saw to cut the nails and a little bit of pushing on the door frame (rather than a coupla crowbars, a bit of care and a large amount of time which was the way I'd been doing it). Then he showed me how to put them back in (the other way around) which was some black magic with blocks, packing, levels and careful nailing so as to not split the wood.
Solar Heating system guy over with a set of quotes for 4 systems.
All looking good if a mite more expensive than hoped.
