Building site clearance

The work on the building project along the shore in front of our house has finally begun. We woke early yesterday morning to the sound of chainsaws and a digger working on the site.
The pictures here are not in proper order but you will be able to see how our view of the lake has dramatically changed - we now have a panoramic view all the way along.

Robert then decided to cut away the two big trees at the front. They have been there a long time - probably way over 20 years so they had got out of hand and far too big. It's exciting to watch the progress now. Maybe the developer just wants to clear the site and put in foundations before his planning permission runs out. Time will tell.
They have also cleared the area down where the boats are tied up. There is an angling centre and 2 apartments planned for that area and 3 houses across the shore in our direction.
You'll not know the place when you get back.


Finally, a picture of the girls sitting in their new "Hello Kitty" chairs. Gareth, Kyra and twins are away in Portstewart for the Easter weekend staying in a B&B with Deborah and Dane. Jill & Nial are also up there with their caravan.
