Ok, yes, I have been back from Cape Town for a few days, and no, I haven’t blogged about it yet, and no, I didn’t blog about it whilst I was away either, so, my sincere apologies to anyone who was doing as I had told, and was keeping an eye out here for updates. The week was just so so hectic, that finding time to sleep was a challenge, let alone getting the laptop out to write about things.

What a week, easily one of the most amazing weeks of my life. I still don’t know where to begin when it comes to talking about what exactly went on during the week of the 2006 Niall Mellon Builders Blitz, but, it was crazy. What a great bunch of people to go away with, a bloody crazy bunch too. The important bit is that we managed to way exceed our target for the week of building 50 houses, in the end, completing 73 houses. Not bad for a weeks work. That means that over 400 people who two weeks ago had no homes to live in, now do. That’s such a rewarding and amazing thought.

Hopefully, as time goes by, I’ll be able to express things a little better, for now though, I’ll let the pictures do the talking. Check them out here
