Our number's come up

Friday, February 15 ... and today, our number arrived in the mail from the Timaru District Council. Seems like a big number for such a small village, but there you are. More interestingly, the bright blue number plate with its 3-figure number arrived with a 2-page document on how to attach it, not so much for the mailman but, more importantly, for emergency services in the (fingers crossed) non-event of a-situation-that-dare-not-speak-its-name.

We are becoming more and more official. Also received colour swatches in the mail from Desmond, our architect, to finalise roof, spouting and window frame colours. Definitely being swayed to Greyfriars for the roof (a very deep grey/blue) but still havering over complementary shades for spouting and frames. As Desmond says, the colours won't actually 'meet' but they do need to like each other. Fortunately, we're all (we three) of similar mind, so don't foresee any trouble there. And it's been raining extremely heavily in the district, which is probably good news for us and the concrete, as things will set properly. More pix and news later.
