The last thing .... the carpet in the new study was professionally laid.
Here are a few photos from A - Z of the project.
Starting from zero .... the bare space.
The builder laying out the framework.
The sound-deadening insulation
and dry wall.
Paining .... I dislike it. Mindless.
Did it to try and cut costs a little; save a few bucks.
The builder's very cool Falcon XR6 workhorse.
Drill bit for the besser block wall: need a LAN connection
for internet work with China, not WiFi.
Furniture has been brought down and cleaned / dusted etc.
Waiting for the carpet guy to arrive.
The paint splots will disappear underneath the carpet ...
Nathan the carpet guy has arrived.
Tuesday afternoon, 13 / 08 / 2019.
He glued down and then nailed down the "nail edging"
before laying the under felt.
Sound-absorbing under felt.
A planned carpet "door mat" was not to be due to the door clearance.
Needed to remove the door and plane it down .... not going to happen.
Expensive quality sound-deadening carpet laid .... nice job.

- Ekka -
I love going to the Ekka.
Below: The Dog Pavilion was really interesting, of course.
Not seeing the wood chopping events is not an option !
Soooo popular.
Then onto the animal section...
Didn't stay for the fireworks: it was a gentle day, not crowded.
Most enjoyable.
See you on Saturday for the fireworks ....
