Building progress - part 8

The drain layer was on site last week and sorted out our drains - no idea what exactly he has done and where the drains are buried. I sure hope he will indicate to us where we probably shouldn't dig in future....










They painted sort of a protection skin on the windows and also wrapped them in order to protect them from damage of the plastering which will hopefully happen next week.





 









3 different types of Gib boarding were used in the house: yellow for standard, green for the bathrooms and blue one in the kitchen. Quite an impressing sight when the whole garage was filled with the Gib boards. A week later all the pink insulation has disappeared, the rooms look a lot lighter now.













There are regular inspections by the council and so far so good. Here are some more photos of building material. The one with the flies is for Esther's mum - she knows why :-)

In case of electrocution, incineration or severe drain leakage ; i'm willing to bid a fair price for whats left ;-)

Getting more beautiful and real every day, congratulations on your new love nest !

Hello People,

I've just returned from a few glorious weeks on Bali.

Checking you site noticed you've indeed made some progress I see.
It's looking grand.
No need for drilling holes in Gib board mate. You can just punch a hole in it ;-) Don't forget to use those butterfly thingies to hang stuff or else....

Why plastering those walls they look great as they are.

You better make sure you know where those drain pipes are ;-)
