27 - June

Times are tough in the office now a days, with all different kinds of projects.  Since my last post they have started to build on a project I did in Boschenmeer Estate, I have received the engineers drawings for the concrete slab and up-stand beams.  My boss is having a site meeting today, to make sure everyone is on the right track.  I have also finished all drawings, that include plans, sections, roofplan, elevations, details, siteplan and schedules. These plans were sent in to council today, and i have my fingers crossed that everything goes smoothly and I don't have to change anything.  They have already started to build on the site, so they are in a hurry to receive the plans.  This project is on a farm outside Wellington, and there is also two additional houses to be done for the workers, that I am currently busy with.  In the mean time we have also went to go measure up at Noble Winery, where small changes need to be drawn up as well as seating that need to be shown in order for their alcohol license.  I have also been going to the council in Stellenbosch a couple of times, since there were plans that needed to be handed in that were for a house in Franschoek.  Most of the people at council I know on their name by now, and they hardly ever give me a hard time.
