Progress Update!

Well, actually from where I could stand, it doesn't appear that much has happened since my last visit...

But, here is yet another gratuitous shot of No. 34 to show you.
It looks like the roof is complete since the barriers at the top have disappeared.





And a whole lot of mess has been created.








I'm gonna have to arrange for a walk-through soon enough so I can see what is going on in the midst of the action. Hmm.... not sure if they will let us. Might have to arrange this with the building inspector person-thingy perhaps?

Progress update!

No. 34 - The roof is ON!
And it looks as though the back row of houses are up and ready too. I haven't been to the site during the week, but the road is all muddy and dirty, so I can just imagine how much work happens during the week. All the comings and goings of large trucks... how excitement!

And this is No. 34 up close

Bad news is, the bloody interest rates have increased again for the 6th time in 7 months. So even though we're not paying the full mortgage yet at the moment, it still doesn't do us any favours right now...

*sigh*

oh well, grin and bear it I suppose.
