Finally, action at the station!

Well it's all happening today!

After almost a week of no activity my enthusiasm was beginning to wane a bit. It was nice waking up each morning to a hive of busy worker bees (builders that is) outside in the garden. It's not nearly as much fun living in a work site when no work is happening.

Anyway, that was yesterday. Today we have 6 men on site - 3 brickies and 3 builders. The last of the big delivery trucks have been and gone this morning, we now have all the wood needed for framing and flooring and the sand and cement are here ready to go.

Here is a fun bricklaying fact for you. 'White sand' is actually yellow, and 'yellow sand' is in fact orange! Who knew..
