Insulating the rafters with 140mm rockwool and the stud walls with 100mm rockwool is a fairly straightforward but itchy process. Jaimin proceeded with this as much as possible.
James' appearance on the scene helped significantly and he managed to lay the fireplace hearth stones (black limestone garden paving stones from B&Q no less) which had to be sized with a circular saw. Though it chewed the blade it was an effective method.
The day was also "capped" by Jaimin scaling the roofing ladder and clearing out, then rodding, and finally sealing the kitchen end chimney with an improvised cap of 2 slates and mortar. This was not a fun job.
Finally James and Jaimin improvised a method of attaching the PIR board to the rafters with grab adhesive (based on sound experience and advice from Thomas) - and used some prop boards to help set them in place.
