We're Fixing A Hole

The Big Bad Wolf made an unfortunate visit to our house of steel and foam on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning, huffing and puffing and blowing down 6 panels.

As they were the 6m high panels, it amounts to about 45 square metres of back wall, but these things happen.

Replacements have been ordered and it will probably set us back about a week, although we can just keep plugging away on the garage wing and the bedroom wing and get them done ahead of schedule.

Oh well.

There's a house with some walls........

Oops, with the holiday season, and other minor stuff like building a house, it really is hard to find the time to blog.

After the crane came out on the 20th and 21st, we managed to put up 31 of the big panels which make up the central section of the house.

Ideally, we would have got all 36 up but not everything went to plan (like it ever does!).

Crane will be back next week when hopefully we can have the entire roof erected over a couple of days.

The first panel is lifted by the crane.
