First day - March 1st

Today is my first day as a girl builder. Working with my Dad, and Mick. We will be a 3 man team from start to finish. It's my Dad's project and he's the brains!! The most common reaction when I told friends/ work colleagues that I'd be building a house was "oh, so you'll be doing what? making cups of tea?!" hmmmm. I know I'm a girl, but by no means a girlie girl, so feel that's uncalled for! Today we basically just got the site set up. Connected a water and electricity supply, and recieved deliveries of the digger, skips and portaloo (staff canteen!)Yes, I did make cups of tea! Mick started digging work. Dad and I erected the security fencing. Just a half day today, not much to do until it's abit further along.
