We're getting there
This week has definitely been the wettest week we have had so far this Winter, not good for us home builders without a roof yet. Its holidays for Megan this week so we have been tag-teaming with days off to keep her occupied and busy. We had fully intended to go down to the block today, but really didn't expect that anything would be done this week with the rain we have had, so we opted for quality time with our unemployed son.
Again the power of neighbourhood watch has prevailed with Reinsey looking out for us on her weekly visit to her almost ready house, she kindly sent these through:-
Front bedroom windows have now been installed!!
Garage roof trusses in place.
Guttering has been delivered!! So with a bit of luck, if the rain stops tomorrow, we may even see the start of the guttering in place!! Stay tuned!!

great to see progress all the time. What colours did you go for with roof etc...I am sure you posted but I can't see it.
Its all really getting there isn't it...fantastic.
oh janine i am so happy and excited for you!!!
Monier Elebana sambucca roof tiles and monument gutters and downpipes are what we have chosen, should pick up the highlight of black in the bricks nicely!
Looking very commanding and impressive Janine.....wet arrrggggh, apparently I've upset my Bricklayer by expecting the job finished; he can't work in wind or rain!!!!!
Its turning into a saga - your letterbox Deb, sounds like he is still in holiday mode.
Wow so great Janine, the roof is so high it looks great, we went past tonight!!!! Progress finally, hopefully its a trend that will keep on going!! So erxcited for you guys!!
It is looking great. We will check it out on the weekend :-)
Hey Janine that was the exact phrase I told him 'a saga'.
I know we've battled rain but this was a 'one day job' six weeks ago!!!!!geeeeeeeezz.
Deb you need to blog about this, what an interesting post about the challenges we face after we stop building!
It's a really gorgeous facade and fills that lovely wide block beautifully. Loz has serious alfresco envy - it's massive!!
Next Tuesday a tour of your home please.
Planter/letterbox as I write is being completed...one hours work, what was so hard?
Brick clean next week (fingers crossed)
You're on Deb will gladly show you round Tuesday morning!
