The first hurdle is over and the council has granted planning permission for us to go ahead with our extension on the house. Whoohooo. We've been waiting on tenterhooks since November, especially since a neighbour logdged and objection. Now for hurdle #2 - find a builder. Easier said than done in London. Everyone has a story about this topic.
In the meantime I am finally putting my years of interior design magazines to good use and am ripping pages of inspiration out in an excited frenzy.

Hurrah! Excellent news.
p.s. I dig your pointy hat, better than a floppy shapeless item.
