I want pipes too. But seriously, it is looking great. I was thinking we would be neck and neck, but at the rate we are going, you will be living in yours before we even have the slab lol. Slight exaggeration, but you get the idea. Fingers crossed the rain clears up for you. Re: Building our 2nd house :) 45May 20, 2011 5:23 pm LOL i get what you mean, its taken us this long to get anything so i am happy with pipes at the moment. But i cant wait to be able to walk thru the frame and see what it will be like. No porta loo yet so will be waiting on that one too LOL Contract signed - March 7,2011 Site Cut - May 6, 2011 Pre slab plumbing - 19th May, 2011 Slab - 10th June, 2011 Our thread viewtopic.php?f=31&t=45044 Re: Building our 2nd house :) 46May 25, 2011 1:31 pm Went out this morning and there were some guys out there working.

It is a shame pipes got broken though. We might catch up to you next week. We have been told we will have a slab on Thursday or friday at the latest Re: Building our 2nd house :) 51May 27, 2011 9:27 pm Hey tamara that is great news we were told we would have a slab by this weekend. But alas no slab that we know of. Dont think they could box it up in one day and pour the concrete as well. Will go out tomorrow and have a look.

Fingers crossed no rain next week for both of us. Fingers crossed we both have a slab. I am starting to look at lights for in the bedrooms, study and WIR.
