Christmas Break? What Christmas Break?

Okay, so we were very excited once again after the pipes were laid and the slab poured. 'Of course', we thought, 'they'll get the slab down so we can pay the nice big bill just before the Christmas break and then there'll be nothing for a month.' So we ran around on the slab for a day or two and left the site alone (and went to the bank to pay the big bill).

Then we get a surprise phone call from our future neighbour telling us that there was more movement at the station... Of course we flew over there and, sure enough, the pixies were laying out timber for the frame!! The darlings are going to have the weekend off and will be back on Monday. What a lovely treat!

Our only concern now, though, is that everything looks so tiny!! We have been assured by a few experienced home builders that the slab always looks small, but really - nothing is going to fit! 'Too late now!' she cried. We will just have to make do.
