I keep my fingers outta those pies, yannow?" The foreman belches a bit and rummages around in one ear with the tip of his pinky finger.
"Treehouse is no good either. We got plenty of em grown, but I'm not gonna sign off on one fer a couple with kids. Falling from a height like that would not be good for a tyke, and when youse come around looking for who to sue, I'm not gonna be tha one that gets up on the stand, nosir."
Finally, after what seem like forever, he pulls out a blueprint and lays it out flat in front of him, "Ere we go. Had something like this in mind fer a while, S'one of those unnerground type places, like a burrow, hollowed outta a nice big hill. It'll keep cool in the summer, and if we dig some vents deep enough we can get geothermal heating for yer floors, so it'll be hot when you need it without payin for electric heat. If youse're set on having a cabin, we could build an extension aboveground fer a bit extra. Just be a simple log thing, but we can have it watertight in a few days."
The folks at the NCU don't screw around. If they say they'll have your house built in a few days, it'll be built in a few days.
