Re: Andy_Min- Site Work Started :) 82May 24, 2010 12:11 pm Formwork and plumbing started today. Waffles and steel due tomorrow. Fingers Crossed the rain keeps avoiding our block. So far dry since last Wed even though it has been raining quite heavily in other parts of Sydney.

I have extreme difficulty getting footwear which fits, I don't know how much luck I will have trying to find gumboots! I'm going to the USA soon and hopefully I can get some over there. I don't know about being carried by the SS either! At least we won't be visiting in work attire tomorrow, I've had too many trips to the dry cleaner recently!

In other news my Kohler taps that I ordered from USA have left the country. i had a shipping update this morning that says they left via Jersey. They will be well travelled taps by the time they get here Fingers crossed they turn up X Definitely boot weather today We also had our site fence dropped off yesterday. One more tick off the list.
