Even cheaper when you mine your own iron ore with a sharp stick and a basket woven of roots, then smelt it over one side of the fire when you're barbequeing lunch ... waste naught, want naught ..... and to think that at our other palapa we throw away seventy pesos for lámina to cover three metres squared, tsk tsk, why in the Royal York you could almost get a beer for that, before they raised their prices that time in '47 ..... one house i just heard was finished now, about 130 square metres [1200 square feet .. ? - roughly], cost all-up 60,000 pesos .... that's about 7700 loonies .... most basic construction labour was paid by the day, about half the finishing by the owners, and it's pretty well-built, all mod-cons, interesting design too .... and the double roof, lámina above losa, the space between will be used for storage

<font color=white>Did you know you could write in white here?</font> ... just a thought <font color=white>... though arguably not a useful one, unless they were to change the background colour, or people wanted to write in secret code, or just dick around while having a beer break from the garden on the day before Labour day, or something
