Another brick in the wall

Yes, that's right, our bricklaying has begun!!!  No thanks to Romeo of course, after my telephone call on Friday to query progress (or lack of it) this week, the girls at the office informed me that my steel lintels will be delivered on Monday ready for the bricklayer.    Needless to say I was a little disappointed that another week has gone by with no progress on the build.

Thank god for neighbours!!!!  After having a bit of a rant on Tash's blog, she informed me that her partner had swung by our house on Friday and informed her that there is a brick wall there, then on Saturday other lovely neighbour Kylie smsd me to ask, did you know you have had some brickwork done, then Reinsey sent me a text on Saturday to say - have you visited your house today.    Talk about the jungle drums going, I reckon forget the girls in the office, the neighbourhood watch people are far better informed.

Still have not even spoken to our Site Supervisor yet, the office girls tell me that he will ring me when he is ready to meet us when the frame is complete.    Hmmm sometimes, they forget who is the customer here, appreciate that they don't want people annoying them all the time, but surely a telephone call to introduce themselves wouldn't go astray.   Seeing I work in a customer service role, I believe its vital to keep the customers happy, don't you?



Anyway, we finally got down there today and I love the new bricks and our contrast bricks as well, here's the pictures.

I will be back down on Tuesday to check progress, lets hope there's lots of it!!
