Freddy, Jen's spoken to Lung and his family on your behalf and they would be grateful of anything you can offer in the way of donating building items and/or fixtures ( rather than cash ). They have decided to move the ' hong nam ' so a sit-on bowl would be useful -- it doesn't need to be the flush type we are used to, just the sit-on rather than the squat variety. If you don't want to your donation to be " **** " on or in, then a door or window or similar would be good or maybe a hand basin. Floor tiles spring to mind too. Building blocks will be required but these seem to be a bit ' impersonal '. If you have any ideas, let me know and I can make sure they don't already have what you are thinking about. Thank you very much for ' getting involved '.

Afternoon Steve aka Freddy.

I've received your message and note that you will be donating the bathroom bits and pieces so as you say, we can cross them off the list. Look forward to meeting up again sometime next week.

Yesterday saw the first two posts going up at various degrees other than 90 to horizontal, but the local building inspector with a few of his boys were there so it must have been OK.

I don't know if the umbrella was significant because of the rain or just to keep the plumb-line man's head dry.....or maybe something to do with that building inspector.....

The Health and Safety Executive were also there to make sure the site was free of dangerous obstacles, and that all the workmen were wearing safety boots and hard hats. Still, it's good to see the building has actually begun.

We had a welcome visit from Steve ( aka Freddy ), Noy and her daughter yesterday afternoon. They had come over with the toilet sanitaryware, tap and tiles destined for Lung Hueng's new house.

The builders had really progressed well despite the rain and they had got all the posts concreted in and the main steel structure of the roof on. I'm not sure what order things will take now, but I guess it'll be the roof next followed by the floor and walls.

Whilst collecting his items at Ruangsangthai,  Khun Pichai also gave Steve an electric drill to bring over -- probably the first Lung has ever owned. After Steve and Noy had left, Lung said that he and his family were lost for words. Just how could all those people help him when they didn't even know him.

I'm not quite sure if Lung knows if he is coming or going......best to leave him in his state of confusion

The truck was loaded to the gunwales today with doors, windows, nails, paint and cement all donated by Ruansangthai Builders Merchants. Once more, thank you very much to Bob and Khun Pichai for their generosity and time to sort out all these items.

It's been a long time coming thanks to the length of time it has taken to get the camera fixed, but I can now post a progress picture of lung Huang's new house. Work was halted during the rice harvesting because most of the builders are local farmers but progress is being made albeit slowly.
