Our usual shot from the drive plus another from the side to show progress over the last two days. The block and beam floor is almost complete now, but yesterday's very heavy rain delayed things a bit, and washed out some of the mortar from the bricks that had been laid. This doesn't matter too much as the courses in question will be below ground level so a quick bit of pointing before the backfill, and no-one will know.
With the backfill around the lower walls scheduled for next week, and the bricks being delivered too we hope to be building walls soon.
Had a site meeting with Roy the project manager today and found that he has been supplied with outdated plans, rather than the latest versions. Fortunately this doesn't matter too much as the differences are a couple of internal walls that can be easily changed. However, it does show how easy it is to end up getting something different to what you expected.
After the weeks of dry weather it is rather galling to have such heavy rain now. Hopefully the drier weather will return.
