Living on a building site...

[KasinoKing]

Well, that's what it feels like at the moment!

We're having some work done on our Czech house; refurbishing the balconies, replacing the driveway and putting insulation round the back and side of the building, because when it was built the idiots just let the soil of the garden run about 8 foot up those walls, which meant a lot of damp on the rear ground floor.

So it's been very noisy & muddy here the last two days - and very dry too last night after the workmen put the digger through the water-pipe from the well leaving us with no water in the taps!

Here's some photo's I just took:







I know the date is a month out, but our camera has broken and I can't adjust it!

Looks like fun

We've had construction going on inside and outside of our house for nearly two years - but we've just finished everything this past week. We (and the neighbors) can finally have some peace.

At least you can enjoy some decent beer while you're there. I love the Czech Pilsners.

It sucks, we were renovating our living room last year and because it was a kind of quick decision and we didn't think it would take long, we didn't plan. All of our living room furniture was piled in the kitchen so we lost the use of the living room AND the kitchen for like 3 weeks.
