Monday 13

A lot of pictures today. The worker normally taking photos have left, so now the foreman have taken over this task. I think the quality of the pictures are better now. We decided to put some bricks between the parking and the gate entrance. After some calculation we  found out that a little more than 4000 bricks was needed. It took some time for the workers to put in place. Here they got help from a minor, she carried bricks and also tried to mount some. Soon finished Time to put tiles on the back deck. more of that The result is good. We now have running water.

This house will soon be ready. We got an address of the house Easy .... Nine slash 4, Moo 1
