Inspection



….I think it is DONE!

Our house is now officially complete! We thought it was a bit touch and go there over the last few days…especially with a public holiday in the way. Some things on the list were not quite finished, last time round, and a few things were not quite right (all minor I might add!) but our SS has come through with the goods as we had hoped!

Thuy and I both had the day off today to finish packing, and to organise some stuff from Bunnings for the new place. We went to the house early this morning to measure up the courtyard and alfresco for dirt and paving etc. We were amazed when we arrived to see now less than 7 or 8 vehicles parked all around our house! Plumbers, electricians, air con guys, painters, tank guys you name it they were there. It was a pretty crazy half our when we were there, with so much happening. We did our best to stay out of everyone’s way, pretty much keeping to ourselves and doing our outdoor planning. Our poor SS was looking a little under pressure (hopefully not from us!) with his phone going off every 5 minutes. I know I’ve said it before, but a really big thumbs up and thanks to him for getting our house done and looking great.

Without further delay… here are some long awaited pictures of our NEW home! :)

On Monday our new lounge arrives, our driveway and decks are being built, and later in the week our blinds should be being installed. Perfect timing! Of course, the only people to NOT have their act together are Telstra. Apparently the whole estate won’t have phone connections until the 21st…. which is pretty bad considering we have neighbours that moved in nearly a month ago now!
