We have a big yellow CAT on our block

We had a start date of Wednesday and today by surprise we had a big yellow CAT digging up our block. They took about 150mm of dirt out of the garage and porch area and built and leveled out where the house will sit.

Our own piece of DIRT

Yay, we had settlement of our land today at 2.00pm. So we now (or should I say the Bank) own 630m2 of dirt, well actualy mud with the rain today in Melbourne. The land was re surveyed on Tuesday and the dirt stockpile will be moved by early next week, or as I am told by Delfin (the land developer). I spoke with Metricon during the week and they said they would be on site within three weeks. This should give them about 8 weeks to get as much done before the Christmas shutdown.
