Pulled out a aluminium sliding door ( found termites just starting out in the sill- got the man coming for that) put in cedar French Doors and trimmed up. Moved an air conditioner out of another window into a mirror position in the next room - entailed pulling the aluminium frame apart and turning it upside down - easier than I thought. Removed the window the air con came out of and cut out the bricks (solid brick wall) under and put the above sliding aluminium door in the hole - changed the lock for a double sided key entry. Filled the gap up the jambs with expanding foam - filled the gap between slab and sill with concrete. Finished at 6 o'clock last night and gave myself a big pat on the back ( and a big glass of red ) One big step closer to making a self contained flat down stairs.
