Reno Update
Okay, update on the reno’s!
We have nearly all the wallboard in place.
Downlights are in and we have been priming the wallboard.
Some more sparky work has been done. The IXL is actually complete, but that will have to wait for the next photo session.
It turns out I printed out the wrong data sheet for our waterproofing gear. For half the bathroom we have used the wrong primer! This is one section which is starting to peal! Kinda looks like a kookaburra… Hopefully the tiles dont fall off the sections incorrectly primed…

Trudging along
Hey Yall,
It might just be my puter, but it appears our first video blog is sound only… anyways, that’s smily’s department, too hard for me to figure out!
Now what picies have we got for ya… Ooh, the spa box is nearly ready for the spa!
Nigel helped me put in he ceiling, and today I put some base coat on the join and screw holes!
Chewy came to visit his future home today even though the fence hasn’t been fixed. His adopted family are in Europe for a month, so we brought him over so he wouldn’t be lonely!
Nigel + House 2
Progress is good, shower alcove has been sealed, with a recess, more villaboard is one, and more recess boxes are ready to go in!

House + Nigel
Nigel is here, and has been buzzzzy!
Shower recess is in and primed ready for the mortar bed tomorrow
Some villaboard has gone in to allow the mortar bed to seal properly.
He has also cleared up the junk pile out the back which couldn’t have been any mean feat!

Sorry Andy and Sumali, Jamie Durie is out of the country at the moment. We are flying in Nudge instead, so we won’t bother with a camera crew.

Reno Progress
More stuff is being done…
The alarm and Modem have been installed, with all wiring in the wall cavity;) Neat FTW.
The bathroom floor is starting to go in. FYI 19mm Compresssed sheeting is very bloody heavy

I have to say, Andy is doing a very good job and he’s having a great time. Thanks to all the people who have offered to help us out we’ll no doubt take you up on the offer at some point.
