Building progress - part 10

More paint on the walls... and some painter's stilts.

















And we finally have a kitchen!! It's going to look great. Heaps of storage and plenty of drawers. The feature color we chose for the kitchen wall is called Spice, a warm brown color. But apparently a 2x2cm color sample gives you a different impression than a complete wall. It looks more purple-brown to me than expected, but it' still nice.

Heavy machinery arrived on the plot to dig a hole for our septic tank. Luckily only the green lid of the tank will be visible in the end, so no need trying to hide the flashy purple color behind plants. This tank recycles all our waste water. The quality of the recycled water is more than 99.9% germ free and it would be a shame not to re-use it. Not for drinking water of course but it's perfectly fine for flushing toilets.  The two black tanks will be stored under the roof and be fed with the recycled water from the septic tank.

The linea weatherboard already has a first layer of paint. Unfortunately the plasterer takes his time (probably already is in holiday mood) and still hasn't finished. Not much will happen in the next two weeks as NZ is sort of closed down for Xmas and summer break.
