Pace slows, problems sorted

So the pace has slowed this week in order to get a few problems with the frame sorted before the delivery of roof tiles next week.

The site supervisor has picked up an issue with the portico. Apparently the supporting beams are too deep to create the more elegant look shown on the plans and have to be re-engineered. I would not have realised until it was being finished off, so I'm pleased the SS is on the job and can get it changed before it's too late.












So far this week the only visible development is the arrival of the water tank. Looking good, with just enough "squeeze past" room to enable access around the back corner of the house.













After heavy rains and builder activity, plus the inevitable bird droppings, there is now little to be seen of the kids' chalk drawings. This was a brief disappointment to them, however they cheered up when they realised that their adventure playground had taken on a whole new 3D look.
