BRICKS BRICKS BRICKS!!!!

Bricks, could there be anymore Bricks!!!

Wow!! At least this shows you where exactly all your hard earned money is going.. It doesn't make it any easier though, it's just a nice thought!! 

When the Bricks are delivered, the delivery man places them strategically for the bricklayers. Saving time, muscle and leg work. 

We provided two garbage bins for our contractors to use and to avoid it all being churned into our garden, we have been lucky enough that they also try to keep our building site as clean as possible, ever conscience that we live very close to a national forest.

Deliveries!!!

Now the Concrete is done..

It gets really interesting because we have some deliveries coming..

Concrete!!

Oh yes folks, we have concrete!!

With a few hickups, our excellent Concrete contractor and Plumber we were successful with out ginormous island of cement.

But, it needs watering for at least 5 days, to make sure it doesn't dry out and crack.

Yes, this is normal..
