What a difference a week makes

Dear wee Crosie had a big week begining the 18th Jan, alas i was not there to help ...

So last week it poured .. lots and lots of cement, in fact 52.8 cubic metres of the stuff! so we now have floors, just need the walls, windows, roof, cladding .....

But this was a huge milestone in the building process, well i think it is anyway. Unfortunately, while this was all happening i was attending a conference in Honolulu, so couldn't help Crosie with any of it (hehe).

I did however, offer moral support by calling him every few hours to see how it was all going. Big ups to the Crosie however, as the concrete placer - Brent - said that his (Crosie's) boxing levels were spot on, in fact he hadn't seen them that good in some time.

Here is a pics of the concrete being poured



Now some of the finished product

Studio / Workshop House Pad

Now the differing views Crosie and I had during that week!



However that wasn't the last of the excitement - we became owners of a temporary building - thankfully temporarily!
