Couple of weeks in

Renovations started around Feb 18th, 3 or so weeks ago - so far we have laid a concrete pad in the shed, lined it, painted it, ripped down the rumpus room, taken the roof off the girl's rooms, demolished the old deck, dug the footings for the new kitchen/dinning room wall - also discovered that the rest of the house is fundamentally unsound so plans are back to the drawing board.

On a more positive note - shed is nearing completion, walls painted, guttering up, carpet down and Ivan has even managed to knock together a deck with a bit of 4 by 2 and some old decking timber - just in case we start to miss the old tumbled down deck.
Container arrived today and was parked perfectly between two trees so we can't access the door - everything is going great!

Photos are of the 2-week old chicks, which seem to be surviving despite the builders and piles of rubble.

One of the rumpus room as of the weekend (or should I say one of what is left of the rumpus room - now reduced to concrete pad and framing timber).
