Early Christmas Present

I was feeling a bit down yesterday what with all the rain and work on the house being slow, so I decided to call the supervisor to see when he thought work might start up again after the holidays. I asked him when he thought we'd have a roof, expecting him to name a date in February, to which he told me, that yes the roofers have just about finished! Whoo hoo, now no need to get depressed everytime it rains. When we went up to take photos the neighbour came over and told us that 5 guys had worked and finished it all in one day. My initial thoughts were that they'd put on the wrong tiles because they looked a lot lighter than I expected, but looking at the leftover tiles they are the ones we picked and it looked fantastic anyway. It really looks like a house now.





This is a photo of the sarking (silver stuff) under the eaves, it was a council requirement as it gets very windy on top of the hill.

This is inside, looking up at the sarking through the roof trusses.







Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!
