We also had the gas suppliers come out to fit the gas meter, and a delivery of plasterboard from our preferred DIY supplier. This involved a 28ton truck, with Hi-ab, and blocking the passage of traffic through the entire estate wilst the delivery was made.
Both S and I were around, so there was a house-full. By mid afternoon we had a working heating and hot water system - another milestone reached! I was concerning myself with fitting the extractor ducting and putting a large hole in the wall for the outlet.
My brother came by that evening to help me shift the plasterboard into the house (it's all 8x4 sheets and very heavy). S has been largely occupied with painting the shared wall with several coats of thick PVA in an attempt to control some of the odours that seep through - it's not just noise that's an issue with next door.

At the moment the boards are just piled up wherever, we'll have to move them around to work on each area, bit of a chore, but no other alternative.
