The Shed/Garage Day 16
Monday 2nd October, 2006

Today the garage company called for delivery. When we were talking about the concrete that was produced, I said that we had supersized the area, just to be safe. They responded that this is a catastrophe !! The garage is set "over" the concrete, and the concrete block had to be the exact measurements. Something they never told me, and is not  written in any of the papers.

So now the builders who are working on the building need to improvise ! Garage will be delivered on the 11th of October. Feckers !

The builders spent today cleaning the brick wall that will be against the garage:

With a high pressure hose, they cleaned the bricks.

They then started the fill in the joints with a light colored mortar, almost exactly like the color used in the main house.

So, this is what it is starting to look like.
