About Me

the grey house
Tiverton, Devon, United Kingdom
My name is Neil and I live with my wife Caroline in rural Devon. Over the years we have built and renovated quite a lot of historic houses. Now in our 50s we are about to embark on a great adventure of building a modern house using inovative technology on the outskirts of Eymet in the Dordogne. This blog is a diary of the ups and downs of getting this far, and hopefully the fun hopefully not the poblems we have along the way. We hope you will join us and look forward to your thoughts and comments
