Surprise Progress

We went out to the block yesterday to show our parents around and were surprised to see that not only had progress been made but there were two guys working out there. At 2:00 on a Saturday! Basically we have had the form workers (to create the floor of the second storey) booked several times, but bad weather has prevented them from doing anything.
We emailed our liaison office on Wednesday, after not hearing anything for two weeks, for her to respond with: we email updates fortnightly we would have got to you today or tomorrow anyway. Well that's great to say because previously we went a month without any contact!  She had said that the people were booked for the day in which she replied but she said bad weather meant that wasn't going to happen.
So that brings us to yesterday when the weather wasn't great and hence our surprise at work having been done.

Through the entry way you can see the mock, wooden staircase that has been put in. It seems to be the same style and size of my future concrete one which doesn't get put in till much later to avoid damage to it. I can't wait to walk in and get a feel for the size but we didn't want to do that while the builders were there.
