Up Up and Away!

We got up bright and early this morning and went past the house, as we haven't had a chance since last Wednesday. There has been a lot of progress on the bricks, and they've almost completed the ground floor bricking.

On Saturday morning they put the scaffolding up so they can continue the rest of the bricking this week. We are expecting to see the ground floor completed by tomorrow, and the top floor starting to go up on Wednesday. Yay!!

Meanwhile, our SS told us last week that he's had some problems with the quality of the bricks - he's seeing a lot of chipping and cracking. He had a talk to Boral about them (apparently has something to do about how they bake the clay in the kiln or something...), and has told the brickies to discard any that are cracked or chipped and they'll be replacing them. So you'll see, there's a huge pile of broken bricks on site at the moment..!

Can see the piers and blade wall for the steps now

Bricks, anyone?
