It took us over a week to cut and grind the corners of the roof of the first pyramid room. Every tile is different to cut and to hang but we succeeded. A hard job.
During the whole process of fixing the rooftiles we broke only three tiles. We have to order another four angle ridges because I made a small mistake with calculating the amount needed.
We also installed already the warm white neon light under the first row of rooftiles, above the u-diches. In the evening it gives a nice view.
Waiting now for the glass rooftop to be fixed. Soon we will start with the outside walls, connection of the main electricity line to the building, installing the septic tank and soak away field and the digging to start with the second pyramid room foundation.
Temperatures are raising quickly now. At the moment already 36 degrees C during daytime. Suffering (nearly all my life already) of varicose veins I started to wear calf support in combination with knee support. It seems to be warm, also always wearing long trousers and shirts with long sleeves and a hat, but actually it is cool, protecting against the sun and I am used to it.
We take some more breaks, drink a lot, and work around six hours a day. It all has to be fun and we are not in a hurry.
My daughter thinks it is ok as well because, as she said, then I do not have to find another project to stay busy ;).
Our neighbors are more and more curious and also dog Joke (the dog from Phatsamon's mother) several times comes to visit and shows interest in the strange construction developments for and in Thailand that are going on.
