Web Blogs from the West of Ireland
::
This blog is updated almost every day and goes
back to October 2004. The blogger not only
describes his own self build
(which is almost at completion)
but
also includes advice, pointers and any useful websites
or information he comes across.
Very useful
reading material for
people who are following in his footsteps.

Aidan is from Co Mayo and has been keeping a self
build diary since January 2005. He writes about
finding a site, going
about a mortgage, the planning process, getting
quotations, digging out the site and all of his
encounters to date. Updated
regularly and makes honest, light-hearted, easy
reading.
