Day 10 (revised) - 4 more courses today

Just as expected, the brick courses are now flying up. Four more appeared today taking the outside walls up to half way up the windows. At least we can see where they are now! Not that many and quite small as is the norm here. If these holes are for the typical concrete frame and window assembly which is just dropped in before the courses go much higher, then the actual windows will be really small.

And also as I predicted, the bricks appear to be glued together. What a clever little bricodog I am.

You can also now get a feel for the layout of the house and I must say it is not very big. My guess is two bedrooms but we will see for sure when the internal walls go up.

More tomorrow night. At this rate the roof will be on next week and they will be moving in by Halloween - NOT! Let us not forget this is a French build and once the shell is up and the roof is on all progress is likely to cease for at least three months. I have no idea why but that is what usually happens!
