Joe the SS called to say the piering is done, after I left a message on Monday to call me before work restarted for the year. Tuesday next week the slab will likely be poured. He mentioned this is a good time to get in and do the RHS retaining wall (which I don't really want to do).
Called the mortgage guy and he says the loan should get approved tomorrow or early next week. I think he's being optimistic.
Went to have a quick look and our grumpy neighbour Neil came to complain. He thinks all the rainwater runoff will be a HUGE problem for the entire neighbourhood. I tried to explain that the roof catches the rainwater which goes into a rainwater tank, and that the stormwater pits will drain it away. The pits have a 30 year flood rating. He and the back neighbour (who is an engineer so obviously his opinion is law) are going to talk to the council about the stormwater tragedy building up in our backyard. I didn't want to bother arguing. Let the council do what they do best, ignore complaints.
I don't see why they're so upset about a little water, considering they've been receiving it for the past 100 years when there was NO tank and NO pit to catch anything.
