Welcome

Welcome to our blog! We've just bought a house in the suburbs of Perth, West Australia. It was originally built in the early 1960s, and there have been lots of additions and renovations over the years, although not all of them were done well.
Over the next weeks, months, and years, we're planning to slowly but surely turn this old house into our dream home! We've started this blog as a place to document all of the changes as they happen...kind of like a scrap book! We hope you enjoy!

Does it smell a bit FRUITY to anyone? :)

Well, it's now Wednesday, and the guys have managed to correct our lovely septic tank problem. The pumpers came in on Monday and drained the tanks, and then on Tuesday, they filled the tanks with rubble and sand...and that's them officially decommissioned!
They've also managed to make a bit of progress on the demolition work...
View from the balcony...you can no longer tell there was ever a problem! :)
They've made a bit of progress on the removal of the pavers in the downstairs room.
This is looking through the doorway of what will be bedroom 4...you can sort of get a feel of how big it will be...it is the smallest bedroom, I believe.

They've removed more of the slab where the bathroom is going. I'll admit that i'm not really sure why they needed to do that, but ah well! :) 
The view of the back of the house...and a silly monkey man :)
