First week down

So - just an almost bare section now...some timber arrived on Friday for the boxing for the foundations (as a guess). Cannot quite believe that we are finally at this point! The garage is remaining for now, the builders will use it for storage etc and then their plan is to lift it, straighten it and plonk it back down once they have redone the concrete pad it sits on...to me it would be cheaper and faster to demolish it and chuck up a new one but hey!! what do I know!

The concrete pool is being lined with a fibre glass inner once the bottom concrete pad has been relaid...(pinch pinch pinch)

They reckon it will take a maximum of 32 weeks until the house is rebuilt and we can finally go home!

Only took four years BUT.....

So. Yesterday we finally had our earthquake damaged home demolished...only took 4 years and a few Court actions but hey!! This now means that they have to begin rebuilding 1 March if not before....they reckon a 32 weeks build for this so am planning Christmas THIS YEAR in our own home. So excited.

Sounds like Sunday

Slight breezer and sunny...the crickets are singing up a treat...no-one is mowing lawns as it is too hot...time to kick back, fill the glass with a nice crisp Pinot Gris and listen to:-

Last one out turn the lights off....
