So following on from yesterday’s list of plans vs. achievements and so on, this is likely the list for 2008/9. It’s not quite as intense as last year’s one, for a number of reasons. Also, I’m sure that by the end of the 12 months, there’ll be other stuff that needs to be added to it, so it’s more flexible as well.

But here goes. (And in no particular order)

  1. Sort out the mortgage renewal along with Herself (March/April)
  2. Write and Launch the two main site ideas that are in my head at the moment, and see if they can make any money
  3. Promote one of the other sites I’ve done, which has a big dollop of potential
  4. Complete the NCFE Photography qualification/course
  5. Redesign my photography site
  6. Promote the photography and site more
  7. Write at least one more big piece to get it out of my head at last
  8. Possibly redesign D4D™ a bit – I know, I’ve been talking about it now for years
    Oh yeah, and…
  9. Lose some weight, as my plans for doing so in 2008 have emphatically failed – primarily due to zero motivation to do so, but also due to life over-riding gym etc.

regarding yourloft conversion its not that big a job not realy i rememeber helping my dad do his biggest pain in the arse for us was getting the boarding up into the loft and thing also the most arkward bit was insulating the roof of the loft as that was a 2 person job and took a bit of time but think we did the whole job in 2 weekends

Unfortunately, ours *is* a big job. It’s been “kind of” done before, but there are whole expanses that have boards nailed down with no insulation on them – and these are boards that were put in before the roof went on (i.e. they brought the boards through the roof trusses) so they’d have to be cut apart (bearing in mind we don’t know if there are wires or pipes underneath), dropped down through the loft hatch, bring insulation up into the loft, lay it, then need new boards on top.

Put it this way – pro loft-insulation installers have said they can’t do it easily.

So we’ll have to look at some of the thin reflective hi-tech stuff, and putting it on the underside of the roof tiles, between each roof joist. Again, more expensive and a lot of work.
