I've been busy over the past few weekends making progress on the observatory (and largely neglecting my other household chores). Since the last update i've:
Poured the cement portion of the pier (the top metal section is currently being fabricated)
Installed the roof guttering (still need to fit the downpipes)
constructed the fly screens for the windows
Improved the seal of the dome to the observatory after a few small leakes were found after heavy rain
The metal pier will be ready by the end of this week (touch wood).
