looks a fine dacha...perhaps builders work slowly to spin out their wage packets..

Kudos to you for the nice new house, and your impending return to pbase. About the work shedule, I would be in frothing rage by now! Well, it is a bygone and now it is time to enjoy! ~V~

Yvonne		18-Jan-2016 10:41
Its no fun building... so many things can go wrong... but at least you're IN now Martin!

chris morton		18-Jan-2016 10:15
PS one of the last builders I remember got pissed off with timber-frame being thought quicker and built a masonry house in 9 days.

chris morton		18-Jan-2016 10:13
Builders are so slow because they aren't builders, but a bunch of kiddos half-trained in different trades with zero sense of co-ordination or co-operation. If you believe in free market economics, you are still waiting for the invisible hand to correct the self-interest. Otherwise you know its invisible because it does not exist.

borisalex		18-Jan-2016 10:05
...and an unlicensed car! :)

I can hardly afford my Rent let alone a retreat! Life is unfair....
