    Work on the Vietnamese prison put on hold because we need more bamboo, so work commenced on the toilet / interrogation room.





    Now a photo of the finished tiling on the rear balcony, somehow I forgot to post these with the downstairs tiling. We used the same pattern as downstairs but a slightly darker shade.



    AND NOW

    Be prepared to be amazed

    Why I hear you say

    Because our tiler Grandad Porn managed to cut bendy bits !!!!!!!




    Right thats enough shock for one day Im off to help the Wife dig the holes for the entrance gate posts.

    Do you think that if Nigel had had Grandad Porn at his house then he wouldn't have been so worried by the comments people were making regarding his tiling?

    I agree but very cheap. Also the dirt soaks up any spillages or poor aim.

    Extremely cost effective and has taken into account the disabled as they don't have to squat to far.

    Definitely I think every build should utilise Grandad Porn

    Now seeing as our village doesn't have waste collection bin men type stuff I was getting bored with taking a pick up full of rubbish to the local dumping ground.

    The solution an improvised incinerator.



    Some blocks I had lying around and 2 poo pit rings + lid. Total cost B300.

    I was looking at Wasp's gallery thread and the pic of our house is an old one. So Wasp old chap here is a pic taken this morning.

    Progress on the Kitchen / VC Prison a couple of pics of the under construction cells / worktops. Note the cutouts for the gas burners.






    Now the nearly completed bamboo / eucalyptus walls and shutters.







    And finally progress on the toilet / interrogation room.

    It doesn't have to be, I recently saw some very classy yellow and orange piping...

    BD, lovely formwork. &, I'm impressed by your Vietnam war era prison.

    .....but not water pipe. Water pipe is blue, yellow is for electrical....of course you can switch them around if you wish... same with all those confusing electrical wire colours....what does it matter, they are just colours after all....

    I feel it's a little rude to ask that sort of thing BD.

    One just have to hope that if it is either blonde or ginger on top that it will be the same below.
