Monster Mash!

What can I say? Within an hour of greeting the demolition guys, the site was barely recognisable. The front of the house had gone and we were looking into what was a bedroom.

Then they discovered that the ceiling and floor was riddled with woodworm, it looked like a teabag and crumbled in an instant! So much for the survey we had before we moved in! The demolition wasn't a moment too soon!



All the wood components of the house were separated into the large container. Guy was a dab hand with the grab arm, carefully separating the rubble into glass, metal, insulation, masonry, wood etc.


As Guy controlled the monster, Danny and Ian sorted out the smaller bits of rubble. Then more walls came down! Yippee!












It's a tough job but somebody's got to do it....

How's this for open plan: bathroom, kitchen, bedroom, garden?

Bath anyone?

Then the floor was gone!

It was all looking reminiscent of a sci-fi movie with the invasion of the monster with the killer grab arm, picking its prey. Just as well there was an action man around!

By the end of the day, all that was left standing was the sitting room, and a bit of the back wall with a view to the summer house, oops, site office!

As a little girl said when she scootered past after school,

"Woah! There was a house here, this morning!"
