Frame Stage 2

Well that's it for frame stage 1. All went smoothly so far, frame inspection completed last week and no problems. Have to pay up this week.

Noticed on Friday (the 13th) that all the aluminum windows have been delivered to the site. Went past today (16th) after work and found that most had been installed. Was a bit dark to get any decent photo's, so Jo will get some decent pics tomorrow hopefully.

here's the pics from 17th June 2008;
