Monday afternoon; the bricklayer was hard at work all day.
One of the team got on with digging the soakaway, and two were laying bricks. Another two were kept busy shifting barrow-loads of earth from the soakaway, and bringing blocks and bricks and barrow-loads cement for the bricklayers. It was a pleasure to watch how well they worked together.
Here's how it looked this afternoon
It's so exciting... memo to self; replenish the biscuit supply early tomorrow!
This is so exciting for you to see it all coming together!! Just keep serving them tea and cookies.
ReplyDeleteThat's the important bit!
DeleteIt's so exciting to see your plans start to grow.
ReplyDeleteI oscillate between excitement and nervousness!
DeleteGosh its huge, it will be a super new room.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's right across nearly all the width of the house, and about 10 feet out. Can't wait...
DeleteIt's so good to see such rapid progress. Once the shell is up it's easier to visualise the finished project.
ReplyDeleteYes, all spring I've been standing at a particular spot on the patio saying " here's where the new kitchen sink will be, and I'm looking out at the garden...'
DeleteStocking up with biscuits is essential when having building work done we found. The crew that did our wet room loved all fancy varieties but the guy who did the flooring only liked digestives, so a quick run to the convenience store solved that problem as we only had some chocolate varieties! Your project is coming along well. Regards Sue H
ReplyDeleteLuckily we can walk to our corner shop in less than 10 minutes. It's cake they really like.. I need to make a lemon drizzle for them.
DeleteBricks are a good match 😊
ReplyDeleteYes, looking good👍 so far
DeleteIt's hard to believe it's actually happening, after all that planning!!
ReplyDeleteI'm just hoping that we got the planning about right.
DeleteOh wow - it is coming along. I bet you'll be glad when it's all done.
