No Bricks

On a recurring theme, bricklaying was supposed to start last week, but didn't. Apparently the bricklayer let them down and another one has been put on the job - supposedly starting today. Meanwhile, the outside of the house still looks like this.


The windows are now in place - we tried out the view (it will look better without the big orange rubbish skip!). This is the dining area:
This is the family area with the orchid room beyond:
This lloks directly through to the orchid room - the wall on the right will be a floor to ceiling bookshelf.
This has just gone up in the ceiling - its the main circulation unit for the ducted heat pump.
On Sunday we stood in the house and listened to the rain on the roof. It's starting to feel like a house instead of a building site now, but there's an awful lot to get done in the next two months.

hi Kate! Finally made it to your blog... your house is looking amazing! The view is going to be stunning (ok, once the skip is shifted!). And an orchid room - how wonderful... I'll be interested to keep an eye on progress!
