House build: week 2

This week the goal was to get things ready to pour the pad. First they put down insulation under and surrounding the pad... in the form of these styrofoam sheets - which are put together to form blocks.

Kind of like lego... or maybe meccano! Burgess and Greg helped out for a while. Clicky-clacky... or more like squeaky-squeaky, so they tell me.
How cool is that?!

Then the styrofoam block things get filled with more concrete...

which gets leveled off by young boys (who get paid in ice cream).
