I continue to get updates on the goings on in the neighborhood, with the pool rework, and with the fly screens and blinds from the wife while I'm out making some money in Kuwait. Seems like the government has funded the paving of the soi the way it should be done. I'll post some pics in a follow on post of what that looks like now that it's been completed. The window blinds should be in within 2 or 3 days. After they are up and we are using them for a while, I'll give some info on thumbs up or down and the source and price.

I've got lots of people to thank for the successful build of this home. Khun the contractor is primary in receiving my thanks. He got paid well for his efforts but he kept the project on schedule and budget and he was an honest broker in a lot of the other stuff I was doing with the house. Thanks Khun.

My use of EURO PVC for my windows was a fortunate decision. Aaron and his work crew were timely, professional, and flexible in their support for what I was doing with the windows and fly screens. Thanks Aaron and team.

EURO PVC was out to measure for the window fly screens and they are going to be installed on Friday or Monday. I have to say that the EURO PVC windows have lived up to their sales pitch. About 2 months after they were installed and after the house was completed, EURO PVC was contacted and they came out to take the protective coverings off the PVC and clean the windows. Additionally, they adjusted the hinges and on one window that I wanted to open differently, they put on a new type of hinge. The EURO PVC windows are looking good and I would recommend them for quality and good old professionalism. I'll give you another update after they have installed the retractable fly screens.

The old pool contractor is out. I was taken in by their can do talk but it was all "Bravo Sierra". When I get back to Thai and some info on the company, I'll advise on who to avoid...

Some of the Teakdoor members who have stopped by to check the house out in my absence and give me update reports were a God send. Thanks guys, you know who you are.

I'll be doing a final photo shoot on Wednesday, 1 Oct and summary of of what I have seen now that the house is finished so I would be glad if you join me in that review some time late next week. Until then, CIAO!
