Wol's house build
Now getting to the finishing furlong: driveway being formed. Bills are now coming in thick and fast....
Alarm system in and activated - one less thing to think about.

Re: Wol's house build
It's just one acre - 4000 sq. m. I'd rather not discuss the alarm, for obvious reasons, but it's a sophisticated one. I don't think any new build should be without one in this day and age.
It looks as if the rain coming across is going to slow down the driveway and turfing, unfortunately: the good news is that the hundreds of natives we've already planted will get a drink!

Minus single figures: I think -8 is about the coldest. No permafrost though!

Re: Wol's house build
It's been very satisfying since we designed the house ourselves on graph paper and with polystyrene models: to walk through what we modelled is a bit weird!
