Not everyones idea of how a house should look. But at least we have the parts for it now. Hopefully, fingers crossed it will start construction next week.
Now some people wouldn't get excited about concrete. But we have. It's very exciting. It means less mud being trampsed through the shed.
The obligatory AFL goal posts!!!
The outside shower-now complete
Oh how the time flys by. I guess we have been so busy with our new life we just haven't had time to update you all with our blog.
Lots of little jobs have been achieved but they all take time. Grahame is famous for saying"oh it will only take an hour or so to do this", only to find him at the end of the day still cursing and swearing on that "only one hour job"!!
None the less we are fairly happy with our progress. That of course is the "royal we".
I try to find myself busy ( in town) or the likes when I know the job at hand is going to involve heavy lifting and me trying to mind read Grahame 's instructions. Like "lift it there, "where " I say. "there"." Which there" I say through gritted teeth. There are lot's of "there's", I'm apparently to know which one it is!!

We now have carpet and lino. Not exactly what I had in mind but hey I got it for free. I even got some brand new off cuts. If you go to carpet stores they are happy to give away old carpet that they have pulled up because it means they don't have to dump.
