A Christmas Break
while things happen in the background
It’s time to take a break from this weekly Substack to relax over Christmas and the summer holidays, and allow the building industry to regroup ready for action in 2026!
Status Update:
Documents and plans and approvals have gone to the Certifier to get to work on the certification process—needed before we can begin.
The builder has everything he needs (I think! *crosses fingers*) to finally come up with a cost estimate and a building contract. He’s “pencilled in” late Feb/early March as the time to turn the first sod.
See you back here then. Thanks for reading.



Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and all the very best for a happy, healthy, safe and constructive 2026!! I look forward to continuing this journey with you
Enjoy Christmas, Annette. I've enjoyed following your journey so far, and look forward to the build.
