First thing that I'm going to do in March is to stop any ongoing work and do a major clean up and organization of materials. It's gone to shyte since I left ![]() Will also level the lot as best as possible (wish I could get me some of that Lagos white sand ![]() But if exchange rate holds up until then I might even slap the roof on.
