Progress report
Well the house has not really progressed above the foundations which did not surprise me. Ian was a little disappointed; especially when the builder said that he could not continue with the build until the 20th September but I guess these are the realities of building a house and at least we have something done. The promise is that walls, roof and windows will be done by the end of October but I will not be holding my breath (Ian is more optimistic!). We still got a lot done with regard to arranging the electricity, arranging someone to mark out the land, cutting and clearing the entrance and planting a few trees out the front. (See our line of carefully staked trees below)

Good to see you back and blogging...the dining room ( or is it the terrace?) is a vision of minimalism- did you get a designer in or was it your own concept? F&V x
A negotiation between us and the builder..designed to make the most of the external beauty by giving it an 'indoor/outdoor' sort of look!
