Groundbreaking

We've been on a short break from the guesthouse this last two weeks, what with my parents visiting. It's a chance for a well deserved break from the daily grind. So, of course, I've been busy making jams and soaps and Viriamu has launched headlong into our building project. We're going to build a small house for us, just a little way down the road from our guesthouse, it'll give the kids (and me!) a place to kick back and make as much noise as we want! Who knows it might also give granny and grandpa a place to come and stay, when they fancy a break from the Welsh winter.
Anyway, Viriamu's already done a huge amount of work there, and with a little help from Tuati he's dug out the foundation trenches and laid them with stones and rebar..... 
A week ago he had a cement party with friends and family, helping to start lay the foundations.  It all seems to be proceeding quite quickly (at least for the moment), very exciting!
