Crappy stuff going on in last few days. I had to drill 2 holes through the side of the house for the washing machine waste and drier hose.
Oh
My
Word
I've got a big SDS drill and diamond core drills but it took me 3 hours to do each one. The double brick on the inside of the house wasn't too bad but there was another 20cm of the most solid Yorkshire stone I've ever come across I think maybe because the house is 3 storeys this bit I drilled through (right at the bottom of the 3 storey wall) is extra thick to take the weight.
Hoefully never again but at least I have a working washing machine!!!
The taps above are going to be moved. They are only temporary - at one point they were the only place to get water in the whole house. :/
