Stop the presses

Today's scheduled blog post is interrupted by the news that we received notice of our Building Approval in the mail yesterday.

Can I get a boo-yeeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhh???

Anyhoo, that means that I can now confidently share our plans with you, which I will do later on today (small children permitting).

Have a great day, I'm walking on air!

PS: Safe travels to anyone who might be starting a rather long drive today!

The waiting game

Just checking in today to say that we're still waiting on council approval.  Everything is with the Certifier, and should be back before Christmas.

Hopefully all this rain will get out of the way so that we can get started on site in early January and have a clear run.

LESS OF THIS!

MORE OF THIS!

Is it just me, or does this kind of rain make other people nervous, after the events of the last twelve months?

Paperwork Schmaperwork

Our plans were sent off to the Certifier yesterday.  Then, I had a call saying that our Council has added a new approval form that needs to be completed!

The Builder was very quick to tell me there was no cost involved, but it was just another annoying piece of paper getting in the way of our approval.

Anyhoo, I completed it straight away (so glad I work from home) and sent it off.  Hopefully certification and council approval won't take too long and we'll see a stamp like this quick sticks.

I'm sure they want to get all their work done quickly at this time of the year, so that it isn't sitting waiting on their desks for them when they return from Christmas shutdown (that's positive thinking right there).

I'm going to be asking for your advice and assistance over the next week or so, so steel yourselves in anticipation...

I hope you have a happy Friday!
