last minute demolitions


we thought that the big demolition was done, we'd do some small adjustments and would for the rest concentrate our efforts at making sure to get the windows in and the house 'closed' for the winter before we depart the 25 of september. a date that is fixed because the train from allessandria to hamburg only goes once a week on saturday nights. i admit i am now in safety mode, meaning i don't want to take out existing windows before we know we can fix them. niklas is a bit more adventurous and started on a new window again, one that might just end up leading us to have to rebuild the whole house. well maybe not to redo the whole house, but it is a real nasty piece of work. restructuration has taken place however many ýears ago and in the most amateurish way. big cracks have appeared in the facade as a result and lots of loose pieces. once you take out the old window, it becomes clear that the surrounding is very very loose... only one thing to do.. 'via via' as the italians say. take it away.. redo.. so now we have a gaping hole that we hope to fix very very very soon. like tomorrow.. or the day after
