No photos this time, as we're having some bluetooth issues. But the excavation is now pretty much complete! The last photos were of the front wing of the house, and now the back (bedroom) wing has been dug in. The cut is much, much shallower for that bit. They got a bit enthusiastic and excavated a little bit too much, but that has been backfilled.
So tonight we got to drive up the driveway, park in the "garage" and stand in what will be our bedroom!
They've also put in the field drain (to catch the run off from the paddock behind us - this runs the length of the back of the section) and sunk the hole for the foul sewer connection.
The excavator just needs to tidy up a couple of bits now, and lay some more drains and trenches. And the temporary electricity needs to be put in. So next the builder comes in, does the set out (the bit with the pegs and lines) and puts in the concrete footings. And then the concrete block work starts.
