11. Retaining Walls Done

Well our block is starting to take on the appearance of an actual house site now rather than the battlefield that it looked like after the HUGE soaks wells had been dug in. 


Damian has finished the retaining walls at the back on all three sides and has done a great job.


Craig backfilling the gardenbox.. a toasty 38 degree today!


One thing about having the fences down, apart from the lack of privacy...is that you get to know your neighbours. 
We are very lucky with our right boundary...the lovely Ivy had some beautiful fruit trees and has given us some delicious mangoes, she has even offerred us some plants from her garden too!




Brett and his crew should be on site tomorrow to finish off the fences (not holding our breath..he has meant to have been on site for weeks now) and then we can relax for a little while.
Well seems I spoke too soon..no show today 28/2/11..ugh!
Still no show 2/3/11 and now he is telling me it will be another 10 days...ugh! 
What do we do?  Any ideas?
Now 15/3/11 and our back and side fences are down.  This is beyond a joke.  Anyone want to know which fencing contractor NOT to use?  Message me.
