The brickwork has been completed and we now await the arrival of the 'roofie'.

All of the timber is piled up at the front and when the rain stops when I am at home will snap some updated pictures.

Deanne and I had the pleasure of watching the Eagles smash the Western Bulldogs on Saturday night and march on to the Preliminary Final next week from the protection of a corporate box. You don't feel the crowd as much but the food and drinks make up for it.

We returned home to pick the boys up only to discover that Lachlan has been telling everyone that he is in fact a Dockers supporter like his Nana and Uncle Brett. He has been steadfast in his refusal to back down from such a silly idea despite the fact that his toys have started to mysteriously disappear.

However, he seemed to becoming around when at dinner last night he advised us that he was an Eagles man but I get the feeling that we may have a little fair-weathered friend in the family.
