Kiwi Gilgs

Hi Folks,

As you will be aware from the email we decided to BLOG!!!

This is a site where we can keep you all up to speed with our adventures and in particular THE house build :-)

So with that in mind today we installed our pipe work - namely electric, water and telephone.

This is Ben and Sam finishing the trench by hand - Clare only stopped digging to take the pic! Luckily we had a digger to do the rest, which was just as well as its quite stony.




Then the electric cable to go in - my what a long one !!! 215 metres to be precise.


Then 100mm of sand followed by the trench being back filled half way up ready for the water pipe and telecom man to lay his cable. Job done by 3 pm after a couple of tea breaks and some yummy biccies.

  4. Looks like a big job - no doubt a wine or two will be required to see it through.
