Building a dream: And the saga continues......

Ok-so last week I announced that we had our building permit (albeit sans shed..). A few days later I received a call from our builder's office staff to let us know that the building surveyor wanted further information-WTF?

They questioned consolidation of the blocks (done upon settlement in January and title issued), the positioning of the door to the main bedroom (moved on floorplan, but not transcribed to electrical plans-meant the smoke detector had to be moved...) and the fact that our B A L hadn't been done! We thought that the BAL had been completed with the soil test-LAST OCTOBER! This has now all been addressed and hopefully tomorrow a permit will actually be issued!

Of course, we are now into June and have a snowflake's chance in hell of being able to move out of the rental and into our new house when this lease is up on October 31st...but we will cross that bridge later.

We have however had part of our driveway completed, the shed site scraped and planted a brown turkey fig tree!
