New Floor

Recently Premier Bligh kindly gave our family some money to help with the rebuilding of our flood damaged home. We spent it on a fact finding mission to investigate the effects of climate change and discovered it's all true. We went skiing peak season and it rained. Rained. Peask season. What is the world coming to. Global warming. Thats what it is.

So being a good greenie, we have planned on reusing the wood from the flood damaged floor. The new floor is underway thanks to Ian.

Ian lays the first board.

The plan is build the new floor only out of hard wood so that if it gets wet again that it will all expand at the same rate.

While Ian lays boards, I (frank) am de nailing the old boards and inspecting them.  The pile front left are the poor quality boards that form the bearers.  The pile back left are the good boards and they will be used as floor boards.
