SLAB !!!!!

Yes, we finally have a slab!
After Tony finished work at 1am we organised to get up at 6am so we could have breakfast and leave by 6.30 to get to the block by 7 to watch the pour.
We got there about 7.10 to find that the first cement truck was just leaving, the smaller garage had its concrete. Yay!!
While watching we were very excited to see our porta loo turn up, they even dropped off our crossing protection.
After numerous trucks ( i lost count) our slab finally had its quota of cement. By this time is was 12.30pm.
The men started pulling the boards off after approx 2 hrs and started giving it it's final polish and edging, at this stage we had to go home and organise a cooked lunch for Tony before he went to work.
Kelly and I will head off there again tonight and take some more pictures without the trucks being in the way.

Well, Kell & I went to look at our slab....it's soooo pretty :) It's hard to imagine all the rooms on it, but we should get an idea next week when they start putting the frame up.

Everyones favourite...the portaloo
