The big Monday morning conference

And so it came to pass that on Monday May 5, we all met at the house in Woodbury. Present if not correct were Jane and Keith, Ken and Shane (the boss builders), Desmond (the architect), Toby, Wayne and Barry (all hammering and building busily), and Jamie the electrician. What a great group. To celebrate the roof being nearly finished, we shouted morning tea and left a couple of dozen beers for the boys.

The work is going very well indeed and the house looks amazing. It's a beauty. We had a most productive 'meeting', which lasted about four hours and left us a little dazed, but very satisfied with decisions made so far. Colours, power points, dormer access and window heights were just some of the points covered. And yes, the house is big - whoops, how did that happen? However, it's beautifully proportioned and feels balanced, so we're in no doubt that we won't regret one square metre of it. The pix scarcely do it justice, but they're all we've got right now, so unless or until you can come and see it in person, feast your eyes on the latest.

More after this weekend, as we're going down again to celebrate Dad's 80th birthday (Happy Birthday, Binks) followed by a Mother's Day brunch. She's all go in Wooders.
