AfterForeman's own initiative, and I must say, it looks quite neat. I would personally have mitered the fascia boards, but one can't expect everything, and this is a budget build after all.
I finally got the price of the plot of land down to one sixth of the Pattaya price. I still think I paid a bit over the odds, but it's really worth it to have a perfectly rectangular piece of land, and to avoid anyone building near my house.

Plasterboard suspension.A lot opf people on site today, electricians installing the consumer units in the rooms and the fans, and the ceiling men working in all the rooms at the same time. We had also started touching up the welds and scratches on the steel with red oxide, but gave up and started digging footings for the perimeter wall instead.
The materials for the ceiling come to almost exactly 100 baht per square metre.
The complete invoice details have been posted on the forum.jazzmanMar 13, 2009

Ceiling fansCheap, 48", only 590 baht in GlobalHouse. This one is just spot welded to the beam. It will be taken down again and the tube will be cut to the correct length for suspension in the circular ceiling recess.. The hook will then be securely bolted to the beam and the welds repainted.jazzmanMar 13, 2009

11 March 2009We now have a small team of 2 men and a woman working on the walls. The first process will be to start a course up to a level just below any window openings or on a wall with no window about half way up. They will stop there to begin another wall. Once all the walls are started with the outer course we will call in he electrician to start installing the conduits in the cavities for all the plugs and switches.pklongballMar 12, 2009
