    Smile Some New Pictures of the Rumah/house/hut/panzer emplacement

    Things are really beginning to look serious now and what with the work on the roof coming along nicely I thought it was about time to catch up on the photos too. Couple of shot of Selat and the big boy (Mt. Agung) in the background, not off subject cause I went up there looking for bedeg that wonderful woven/plaited bamboo which everyone ignores but can be sooo beautiful if done right.

    Hope you enjoy and, as always, constructive, funny and envious comments are appreciated. LOL

    The place is really starting to come along. I did notice however when my friend was building his villa, that the final finishings and painting really dragged on forever. I remember when he did the roof construction and tiles, that was done in just a couple of days.

    That's what I keep being told "calm down, it's got a long way to go still" but that's ok. I'm having fun!

    That's the main thing. I can imagine some people get really stressed about it. I want to start some kind of project this year. I don't know whether to start something brand new or buy something that just needs some renovation work. Whatever I do, it won't be on the scale of your project.

    I am a regular visitor to Bali from Australia, an ex builder and have a real interest in tropical architecture.
    Found the photo story really interesting as I am interested in securing a property in Bali. Any advice, comments, etc either on-list or via email would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    The idea of the Mata Hari really inrigued me so. I never thought of that idea as more abstract and philosophical. I read about it in a blog article.

    As I've said elsewhere, just pm me when you are in the area and I'll give you the full tour. But you gotta promise to listen to my bullshit too, oh and bring Bintang.

    Sounds like I'm asking a lot so forget the bullshit and just bring Bintang...lol
