Progress

Stumps are in, well first lot anyway, we had to leave some so we could have an area for the concrete trucks to come in. We need about 20 more but most are in. Bricklayer started today, very exciting to see walls going up. Also Darren has levelled the first tank and put it in place so we could get some water delivered. We will need it for bricking as well as drinking later on.



This is our little shed. It came with a BBQ, a fridge, microwave and power so it is very handy. To the left is a nice shady area where we can sit and watch the men work!!!


The first wall!

Yay, the stumps go in.

Today we put our first stump into the ground. The holes had been dug, filled with concrete and as we speak Darren and Luke are levelling all the stumps into the holes. Here are some photos.

The stump holes.

Filling up the barrows.


Emptying the barrows, this went on for about 40 minutes.
