Before

The work has started. A few hours after this and the builders were well on the way with sledgehammers and shovels. Two big holes have been prepared in the basement, the balcony wall thingy will be gone by now and the fireplace too. I am so very happy to meet my guys, they are smart and funny and not without muscle, plus two electricians who are also well clued up. I am so very excited about getting some space to move in. There will be much dust, but there is action. Loving it!
