Good luck Pete! I just got married myself a month ago, and its amazing how it can take over your entire life for a while. Especially when you sell a house and move in with your parents the month before the wedding. Now we're in the process of buying a new house. If everything works out, we'll be moving in in 30 days, and I may have my own build thread not long after that!
Can't wait to see this finished. Its really too bad the Permadri waterproofing didn't work out (yes, I remember, it was operator error, not product error). I guess as long as it gets done and holds water it doesn't matter what keeps the water in.
Hope to see some updates when you get the time to post them. Good luck!
