Lowlights:

“Police were told the baby had spilt liquid on herself and the man put her in the clothes dryer and turned it on.”

“the toddler should make a full recovery “

“Samuel Marc Barnes Siddall, 21, of suburban Beldon, appeared in Perth Magistrates’ Court today charged with causing bodily harm or danger.”

Is this man

  1. An idiot?
  2. A thug?
  3. An idiot and a thug?

Either way, Samual Marc Barnes Siddall, I hope the internet remembers you for a long, long time….

Well, the plumbing is in, some of walls are up and the bath is installed.

But we have one small issue: We have a leak in the roof of the house.

This explains the strange dampness which used to appear in the bathroom sometimes (it was never clear if there was a leak in the roof or condensation, but now we know).

The can’t put the rest of the ceiling up, or the final wall sections until the hole is patched, so I’ll be up on the roof tomorrow before work trying to squirt goo into whatever hole I can find.

Hopefully it will be obvious, all the other roof leaks we have had were explained by one highly technical indicator: There was a hole where the water could get in. Funny that.

Day two photo’s now up: Yes, partial construction, amazing isn’t it?

Day one is complete, day two is in progress
