Progress being made

Quite a lot of action recently. The trenches have been dug for the foundations, the piers have been dug and poured and all of the plumbing and electrical work which needs to be done prior to the slab being poured is well under way.




One minor hiccup this week when the electrical trenching and cabling was layed through an area which will be excavated in the future for landscaping....whoops. It has now been re-layed though an area where it can rest permanently in peace.







Tim has been kept terribly busy with meetings with builders, plumbers, electricians, engineers. Sometimes he manages to make it to work.

I have decided that there are plenty of building site photos, so with each post I will be including an image of one of the fittings we will be including in the house interior. Feel free to post derogatory comments about my interior decorating!






We are starting this post with the toilet; the Duravit starck 3. This toilet will be used in the en suite and main bathroom; a different model will be used in the separate WC. I could blind you with exciting technical toilet details (who ever knew the toilet world could be so complex), but it's just a toilet- and the lid doesn't slam shut. In case you were wondering, it doesn't have an aerial, I think the black thing is a join in the wall.
