We’ve just spent the last two days researching and choosing, or rather trying to chose, bathroom fittings for the house. Setting off with list and budget confident that we’d crack this in a couple of hours. After all, how difficult can it be to choose... The floor and essential services have been installed on site since our last visit. We now have a floor, veranda, water tank and sewage treatment system.We also met our immediate neighbour today who was busy planting trees along the boundary to provide privacy. That... I think the house is blushing since the floor is left naked with only its joists showing. It was quite something to see the full extend of the floor plan, complete with bay windows and demarcation between the house and the veranda foundations. That’s the view... Guess who is back on their patch of grass!We had our project induction meeting today for the house build. A real experience to be briefed on the finer points of health and safety on a building site. We were gutted we didn’t get our own hard hats to wear and that... The house now official has roots. About 70 foundation piles concreted into the ground. There is now also a site office, a rather menacing looking timber saw and all the necessary amenities for the builders to make themselves comfortable in.View across the siteClose up...
