Building Your Own Home, Or A Quick Way To Spend Loads Of Money!

 It's been 5 months since we made the move to the country to build part 2 of the house. When we arrive the place looked like this, except the removalist's dumped all our furniture outside the studio instead of down at the shed! Anyway after a couple of months spent with first the building designer and then getting the revised plans through council we made a start.

 We allowed 2 days for excavation.


 Five days later and we are almost done!

 Next it was on to the trees - several had to go to meet the fire regs.
 More boulders uncovered while digging the footings.
 
 The first concrete goes in...
and then the rains came. That was a couple of weeks ago now. We've made some progress since then so stay tuned for the next installment.
