Followers of the Grand Designs programme will know that all schemes are over budget and late, but it's worth it in the name of art, or even worse, getting what you want. So I had better stick my figures to the mast. The budget is £**,*** (Suki has removed this information) and the finishing date is - well probably never - but I hope we will be comfortably inside for summer 2011. This is a Modest Design.
God is in control. This was clarified by snow after the global warming conference - look on my works ye mighty and despair! It was an angry sea today, cold wet and windy, after a beautiful calm and sunny yesterday. The lorries are carrying the shingle back up The Channel and the vast bulldozer is spreading it around - I want that job. I think the weather is going to play a bigger part in my scheme than I anticipated.
Suki will be coming down tomorrow to decide which books to part from forever. Then I shall be in a position to have all our stuff taken off to store. Yesterday I was smashing up the concrete around the drains which left me all shook up this morning. An earthquake would be of some assistance at this stage.

I'm Simon and my challenge is to design and build a house all by myself.
