Gunite

They came today and poured the gunite for the pool... now it's really coming along...

They put up blue sheeting to keep the overspray from going all over the place:



Here you can see them shooting the gunite onto the back wall of the pool - the guy on the top left has the nozzle:

Now they're forming the spa bench and sunshelf:


Here's the finished article:



We could not be happier with the result - the pool looks great, the spa is perfectly positioned and it all works just the way we imagined, if not better.
Today is plumbing, tomorrow is wiring and then we'll be looking for the flagstone and tile guys.

What's going on with the pool then? I am hoping at the bottom of the pool you have a mural with either mine and Kevin' s face or perhaps a huge Union Jack? Actually don't do that because that's what I am going to do when I build a pool one day. Yeah right!

Glad you both are safe and sound and believe me we love the blog. xxx

By the way I am afraid of "anonymous" - they seem to know exactly where you live.... ( I am whispering, so they can't hear me).
