Progress!! Stage One Complete!

Well.. things are certainly happening quickly. Just two weeks ago we had nothing but a scraped site, a port-a-loo and some temp fencing. Last weekend, some friends drove past and said that they saw our pipes and electricals had been done. Kir went to check out what was happening on Thursday night and they had put up all the forms for our slab!







We were told by our Site Supervisor (SS) that the slab would be poured on Saturday, so come Saturday afternoon, we were driving up to see what was going on. On arrival, the concreters were still there and had just about finished the job. A cement truck came tearing up the road with the last of the cement needed to finish off. And voila! We had a slab!





Yes people.. a slab! All nice and freshly laid. This was taken on Sunday afternoon. I cant believe we're standing on concrete laid just the day before! So it's all progressing nicely so far.


We went again today to have a look as SS said the frame should be starting on Monday. Again.. SURPRISE! We had half the frame up for the house already! In one day!






So the time marches on. Progress reports as we visit the site.. hopefully at least once a week!
