Got a message from my sister in law today to say that they are only back today to finish our cut our drainage was meant to be completed by Wednesday... Did I mention we are on a time limit to have our first progress payment into the bank by 12th feb or we have to redo our construction loan as it's been 6 months since our application has been done with no draw downs.... We've been assured our slab will be down by the 12th but it's looking more and more unlikely GJ Gardner Modified Coolum 277 viewtopic.php?t=83643 Re: Charlibear's Build with GJ Gardner 1966Jan 27, 2017 10:52 am Glad to hear your enjoying your trip!! Shame about the progress, but it might pick up now the public holiday is passed. My approval expired 3 times *facepalm* but was alright in the end.

Hubby's brother said our cut is massive and is the size of a residential block I'm excited to go out and see it finished this afternoon GJ Gardner Modified Coolum 277 viewtopic.php?t=83643 Re: Charlibear's Build with GJ Gardner 1970Jan 30, 2017 12:20 pm So I couldn't help myself and went out there early It's only taken them a week to cut it but I'll take anything because it's taken so long to get to this point I think we've been pegged?

The last photo shows a pile of soil, that's where our shed is meant to be going, we are meant to have our shed started next week, so will need to speak to SS about having that moved I was disappointed because we didn't see any workers while we were they but then just as we were leaving the guys doing our earthworks turned up with a load of soil, so yay for more work being done GJ Gardner Modified Coolum 277 viewtopic.php?t=83643 Re: Charlibear's Build with GJ Gardner 1971Jan 30, 2017 12:25 pm Wholey crappers your site looks huge!!!
