Kaylia's looping is driving both Naomi and I to distraction!   Having a quota of DVDs.... that are a ransom against her deliberate loops.... it's good but she still loops in her room.  This is allowed as she has to have some outlet...... but she has taken to shouting it out in her room.  

As a consequence we now say to her that if she shouts it out we will do one blast on the bugle.  She hates that...... so it might work.

The garden is growing well and the chooks are a delightful set of characters.  They are fascinated by the sparkly jewelry on Naomi's fingers and try to peck at it.

The building is progressing.  I'm fitting the decking to the upstairs balcony...... a bit early but it's a safety measure as the temporary floor is a dangerous thing.

Kaylia had a good day back at school.... singing all the way home ..... and then straight into the bath!  She has "body doctor" this afternoon.

The roof is off the bungalow ..... now I have to bag up all the insulation!  Lovely job.

Then I'll start on the floor structure for the new room.

Alberto and Rebecca left today.... they leave Australia in the near future.... Alby to return to Italy and Bec to continue solo travels. 

Alby and Bec left the bungalow in a spotless state..... this was very impressive..... and gratifying as the previous aupairs had left the room in a disgusting mess when they departed.

Now that the room is not occupied I can start the next stage of the building project where I remove the old roof..... and construct the walls of the "new" bungalow.

A floor will replace the old roof.
