Did you hear the joke about the roof?

Well, never mind… it’s over your head.

While you are getting over that wildly dodgy roofing joke, you’ll find us happily staring at the new ‘Cooldek’ flyover that has made such a difference to the back deck.  Thanks to Sam and James for sweating it out at the hazardous job of lifting the sheets up wearing gloves to protect against the razor sharp edges. I loved watching their team work.  Still need to finish off the flashing and gutters.

The next stage will be the installation of the verandah rails and balustrades.  Also relocating the swimming pool fencing across the backyard to work in with the new stairs planned to come down from the deck.

And if you check out the photo of Sam on the roof you’ll catch sight of the beginning of the first coat of paint on the bricks.  Confucius say, ‘The man that moves a mountain begins by carrying away small stones‘.  Well that was a bucket load today – thanks to Megan and Paul for your help.
