Oh Boy!

Take a look at this! Now it may look like it's a mess but it's the start of the prep of the site to enable me to be moved and raised. I know it looks awful but you can't make an omelet without breaking eggs.

The site of the old water dynamics building has been cleared and leveled and this is where I will be placed whilst my site is raised. Hopefully my owners will get on with moving me soon, everything is ready but my owners are just waiting now for Porirua city council to sign off the resource consent for the works they want to do on site and to enable me to be plumbed into the proper sewage system - I don't want to be reconnected to my old septic tank and without a toilet what use am I to anyone?

So what's going on?

Well, I've been waiting all this time to find out if funding from the Historic Places trust has been awarded, I still don't know but I will find out this coming week.

Also the plans my owners have for me and my grounds have been with the council awaiting resource consent. There have been a few hurdles but my owners have jumped them and now there is just one outstanding issue - which hopefully will be resolved tomorrow.

So for the past six months there's not been much to write about, but I'm hoping and keeping my window sashes crossed that it all happens this week and I can start writing weekly if not more.

My door is looking better at least

The end result

So I feel more secure now!
