We carried on with the task of laying the Damp Proof Membrane (DPM) plastic down on the ground inside our perimeter wall of our house. We now have completed and reached up to the edge of the Entertainment room and half the Bedroom 2 at the back. We had to put down more sand to flash off these sections and scraped it level, which took all morning to do.

We had no rain today which was nice, but it was rather windy and had our plastic sheets flapping in the wind a bit so we put down lots of concrete blocks on the edges to hold everything in place! tomorrow, we resume and do the last 2 strips, but after we go and buy another roll, our 4th from Jewson’s, and we will only need about 5 metres off this roll to finish the job – Oh Well!
