Work delayed due to extreme soggy conditions - 6th August

Well, I guess we expected the call from PD (our 'foundations Supervisor') today they found it impossible to proceed with digging for the drainage. This is not because of how wet it is in the front but because of the rear where the fill is. To dig through 1.4 metres of fill and then past natural ground level, he said the machines would not cope and it can become dangerous to try. He said he would come by on Thursday and see how it was. Meantime slab pour is on hold until the land dries out some more.







Can't say we are surprised, we live in Melbourne after all and not strangers to the wet conditions... and now we wait.... and pray for sunshine and happy days!

... sigh
