In pictures: Behind the scenes snaps from The Block 2024
You'd think the Blockheads would be too busy painting and picking up power tools, but it turns out there's always enough time to snap a cheeky pic.
After all this is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, it's important it's documented.

From working hard to hardly working, there's never a dull moment with Maddy and Charlotte, Courtney and Grant, Ricky and Haydn, Kylie and Brad and Kristian and Mimi.
Scroll through to see all the unseen behind-the-scenes pictures from the teams' time on site.
It's been a hectic year for Haydn.
Not only is he undertaking a mammoth Block renovation with best mate Ricky but just two days into filming The Block he welcomed a beautiful baby girl Matilda.
But things are about to get even busier for Haydn and his wife Chelsea as they announced some "exciting news" on Instagram.
"Our little family is growing! Chelsea, Tilly, and I are welcoming a baby BOY in March 2025! 👶💙 So grateful! 🌈💖 #DoubleMiracle #TwoUnderOne #TheBlock," Ricky wrote alongside an adorable snap of the family.
Chelsea is currently 14 weeks pregnant, and welcomed baby Matilda back in March following the couple's decade-long struggle with IVF.
"Within the first month of him returning home it happened. Everyone's a little bit shocked. I guess when it rains, it pours," Chelsea, 36, told Woman's Day of the happy news this week.
"We didn't expect it to happen so quickly, given our previous struggles. But we had heard it can happen quite quickly after the first one," Chelsea added.
Now little Tilly is going to become a big sister just days before her first birthday.
Congratulations to Haydn and Chelsea!
After Foreman Dan revealed to teams that there'd been a major plastering delay many of the contestants worried about just how they were going to make the 'tools down' deadline.
But taking to Instagram, Haydn asked the question on everyone's lips: "Do you think anyone's going to finish this week?"
We guess we'll have to see the week through to find out. Fingers crossed!
Sleep is a scarcity on The Block, but we're glad to see Mimi is getting some.
We're not too sure that's a comfortable position though.
One of the hardest parts of The Block is time away from family and friends.
Thankfully Kristian scored a visit.
"Much needed visit from mum, dad + moses 🐾💜," he captioned this snap.
The gang is (almost) all here! Just testing out exactly how many Blockheads you can fit into one car.
We think that's Ricky under all that dust.
This is the aftermath of night spent sanding walls.
No shirt but lucky he has safety goggles!
Looks like All Star Kyal had such a good time working with Ricky and Haydn he wants to permanently join the team.
"Just 3 blokes living the dream #dreamteam," they wrote.
We wonder how Kyal's wife Kara feels about that call.
It seems Ricky and Haydn have a friend in Foreman Dan.
House 3 represent!
Who said The Block is all work no play?
The boys managed to squeeze in an early morning fishing trip after finishing their second guest bathroom before 'tools down'.
