Portico, alfresco and dunnies

The brickies have now finished most of the house, except for the build-up of the verandah area and a letterbox/planter box section to the left of the garage.

Here are some pics showing the garage, portico and alfresco, plus some other random spots.

The next stage will see the carpenters start on the roofing.

In the meantime, we've had fun checking out plumbing items this week ... Muz has really enjoyed sitting down on the job to test things out.  :)

Brickwork almost there

Most of the brickwork is now finished and it looks like there are only a few sections to go.  We can now walk through the house and get a proper feel for it.

Here are the latest snaps (taken today, lots of!), starting at the front...
