well, if energex were a racehorse then it wouldnt be named pharlap. we are still waiting for connection and do not know when they will turn up. sally went through the house and filled out a defects and omissions report and pat our builder is currently attending to this. this would be the last thing on his list of things to do..

the bow deck.... i know, i know.. sally has already done the "ï am the king of world" thang... how did our house end up looking like a cruise ship..?. go figure... the hull is iron made to rust so it should turn a myriad of colours over a period of time.

a nice example of the mid-afternoon sun hittig the rammed earth walls creating thermal mass that should keep the house a little warmer at night...

the main bathroom... with a bath that even i can enjoy.... by candlelight... at night... with a glass of red and sally rubbing my shoulders..mmmmmm

the eco village vdp (village design process) wanted skirting 600 mil down from the house. this would hide the pipework etc. we have come up with the idea of "living"skirting so have put wire trellis in place and planted passionfruit and jasmine vines. we hope this should do the trick... 11th of august still d-day for this tribe....
