Went to block for concrete pour. This was not as difficult as I thought it would be. I had asked however for a small mixer, but a huge one arrived. Anyway they put a chute on the end of the mixer and just poured the concrete directly into two of the holes. Then I just [...]

Called Harvey Norman kitchens and made appointment with designer for tomorrow. Also discussed stainless steel benchtops. This will add approx $5,000. Roof is on and looks good. It is a little lighter than the swatch but still quite a nice colour. Not that the swatch is wrong it is just that a large expanse looks [...]

Carpenters working today to put up eave lining in places that are inaccessible once the roof is on. The delay in the roof has in some regards been a benefit. I painted the eaves boards, some prepainted, as these will be hard to access. Not quite sure whether I have the colour right. Might need [...]
