During week 11 it unfortunately rained Monday through Wednesday so not a lot could be done. We finally got some sunny or at least dry weather this week and the builders were able to work on the new roof. They've put up the majority of the roof beams. Early next week we will be picking out our new roof tiles.
Before I get to the photos of the new roof beams, we had an unexpected turn of events this week. Richard came home from work on Thursday and went in to the kitchen to find that a section of the ceiling had fallen down! We apparently had a slow dripping leak in the shower and the plasterboard had been absorbing the water as best as it could but it just couldn't take anymore. Thankfully this happened when no one was in the kitchen and it's happened now when things are being replaced anyway. Also, we are fortunate that the floor boards have not rotted so we are still able to carry on using the bathroom now that the tiles have had some sealant put on them to stop any further leaks.
And now the photos taken today.

The weather forecast for this coming week isn't looking too good, tomorrow is supposed to be the only dry day. Let's hope the forecast is wrong and they can continue to get a lot more done this week.
Looking good!
