It’s almost finished!

I had to go away last week, so it was two weeks between visits and it was certainly all coming together when I went to the house on Saturday.  The lights and fans were being installed, painting was completed (baring a few touch ups), the showers and toilets were installed, kitchen sink installed, the stained glass had been replaced by Harkaway, chimneys were up,  the gas connection was done, fences on both sides replaced and base boards painted.  The pressed metal splashbacks had still not be installed and the ensuite pressed metal has not had the dado rails installed.

The sun is shining on us

Oscar finally found something to get excited about – we are making our own electricity from the sun.  The solar panels have been installed and connected and last weekend we could see our electricity generation ticking over!  There are 20 panels – 10 on each side of the roof (East and West facing).
