Verandah and a little more brick work


The posts for the verandah are in and the brick work at the back of the house has been completed. We're hoping the mortar will go off to a paler colour, but we're pleased with the way it looks. The barge boards are also going on and some of the scaffolding is down, so it's a bit easier to see what it's going to look like.
