Sweet. Nice photography too. :biggthumpup:
Well done Nawty. Those bogs would be a very nice place to contemplate things.
Does look good Nawty were you still planning to give the loof a haircut or was that already done. When the trees in front get a little bigger it will be magnificent.
Looks great, congrats on the finished project!
The weld looks OK, its the fitter that needs to be shot, like a lot of things it just requires a good joint!...multiple meanings intended
Superb looking house Nawty, those bedroom walls look good. Does that matting come on a roll, or did you just buy a load of separate mat's and pin them to the wall? Do they need sealing?
I wish you and yours happiness in your new home.

So thanks to all for the comments.
This should finish off this thread almost, maybe some stuff to add later.
Like 2 days ago a swarm of bees moved into the balcony and took over the light above.
Decided to leave them till morning to see if they move on by themselves, next day still there, so i caught them all and placed them in me spare hive to see if I could relocate a wild hive......
What are you going to do with all your beez wax?
I have a hairy arse and apparently KW is coming to visit.
That happened to us tooQuote:

Love the rustic look, it looks like a real escape. Would be pointless to build a country place and then spend half your holidays cleaning it. I think I'm going to use the screened-in-room idea for our Isaan kitchen. I've been trying to think of a way to keep it really open and airy but with the bugs to a minimum.
Love it mate; loads of character and an individual style. Where is it located? Up country?
Southern edge of Khao Yai national park, 90 minutes north east of Bkk.
