The Brickies came today ... WOW how Keen eh?
We were very pleased to hear that the Brickies continued their work today ... YAY perhaps it was the few days of rain we had that made them decide to do some today... VERY VERY HAPPY let me tell you..
As you can see in the pix they have almost gone right around the house ... they have 1/2 of this wall and then around the front to do then up goes the scaffolding WHOOHOO .. its all happening sooo fast now...
There is the spa area and the alfresco area in all its bricked up glory lol

Yay the next stage has officially begun
The Garage Wall from both sides ... They must've got rained out and said bugger that and gone home lol dont blam'em...
I say a small amount of progress is better than NONE eh?
Nice and Thorough thats the way we like it ... So excited .... This bricdkie is apparently very particular in his work and a bit of a perfectionist... he is a bit slower appartently but hey I have to live in it for the rest of my life so quite happy for him to take the time ... eh ?

The bin has moved, otherwise not much has changed
The bin from the front was moved behind the gate and that made room for the tiles to be delivered ... just heard from the Site Super and he says the Gutters and Facias are goin on on the 24th and the Tiler is booked fro Monday...
So no updates for a couple of days now ...
Will update as soon as there is movement again

Latest update .... MORE MOVEMENT
Well I did a driveby as I do so often and the temporary fence is up ready for the Chippies to weild their hammers on Thursday ... WHOOHOO Framing Stage Begins ....
Whilst there I went with bubs and introduced myself to 2 sets of neighbours across the street one a FIJIan Indian couple and another lovely Indian couple and how is this for coincidence one has a 9yo girl and 12 yr old son and the others have a 8 yo son and 2yo daughter and both of wives are ummm NURSES just like me one a Personal Care worker or Nurses Aid and the other a Division 1 working at the hospital where I spent most of my career before getting intot he aged care sector..
How uncanny is that the kids are already planning for Halloween next year... I am thinking of organising a Street BBQ once the area is all completed and we are all settled ...now I have 2 more attendees who want a COMMUNITY which is after all what Sandarra is all about xxx From me ...Next will be the pix of the Frame going up YIPPEEEE
