The Rubble Rat

Lydia loves to inspect every piece of rubble for cat treasure.

Old foundations

The last of the old foundations are almost gone. Digger will return on Monday to make way for the new front wall of the house.

Saturday 14th

The last day of the Ekka coincides with that of the old front stairs.

Electrical wiring

As the Ekka westerlies blow the walls are strengthened and the wiring goes in.

The roof trusses

As soon as the rain stopped the roof trusses arrived and went up. When will the roof be sealed?

Tuesday nights downpour

Grab the tarp and buckets, or anything that will hold water! The heaviest rain since 1870 something poured i through the bathroom window, via the new family room with no roof, and seeped along the vj ceiling of the lounge room. The saturated carpet came out to the skip a few days later.

The study and the old front stairs

As the study takes shape above the new entry, the old stairs under the little frot roof prepare to be demolished.
