Greetings!! Busyness has overtaken me, so I haven't had a chance to update. But here is yesterdays offering.
We were very excited to see that they had almost totally finished all the bricks, all the way around the house. And it wasn't until my husband pointed out the portico pole finished that I realised they had finished the whole portico, (that is front entrance for you newbies)!
We now await to see what the render to the front post and bottom half of the front will look like.
Inside they have finished all the cornice for the ceiling, and
finished plastering all the ceiling areas. Including the doorway into the rumpus area, which is meant to actually be a 'doorway'! So tomorrow my husband will have to get the building manager to make sure that it is turned into a door frame.
They seem to be following the original plans and not the revised ones that we made, so we'll have to see why that keeps happening.
Other than a few niggly problems, everything is coming along very nicely!

Looking Good!
But have they got the meter box right in the front entry porch? Seems a bit odd - Lovely entry feature and convenient for the meter reader.
Hi Jen!!
yes you're right, it is the meter box right at the front door. I can't remember why, but there was a reason they couldn't put it on the fence side of the house, so this was the only option... we're hoping it will blend in a little with the render when that goes up!!
Hi, I am building also at the moment (www.buildingsanctuary.blogspot.com) and am watching your house go up with interest... Congrats on the brickwork being done :) Its an adventure to build for sure...
