Hey all, I went through Burbank a few years back to build me house out in Pakenham a few years back; however, over the last 24 months there's been quite a large flood of people and the semi-rural town is no longer the same place it used to be. Therefore, I have decided that I'd like to change it up ...

I've never been to Singapore personally, so I'm looking forward to it. I miss the AFL Grand Final though, but premium seating, pit access at the Singapore GP (night race as well) is going to be an awesome experience. Best thing about it? Didn't have to pay for it :-D

Cheers, but I won't be the one doing the PCI since I'm overseas still. On a good note, I'm going to the Singapore Grand Prix in September! Should be a bucket-load of fun!

Yeah, the king-size berth is alright - looks better in real life though. Sadly no companion to share it with. Anyways, beer time. Cheers, Big Red

King Size bed, BR! Expecting company? :D Yeah. My horse-head pillow arrived. She's a tad bigger than I had imagined, so I've adjusted accordingly so that all can sleep well.

Went shopping today for a few items around the house. Purchased an Entertainment Unit, Coffee Table and a bed (King size - Which is surprisingly a massive step up from the couch I sleep on at the moment!)

kexkez: Yeah, one thing you'll learn about me and the company I work for, is things change in a matter of minutes. That's the beauty of it. I had never been overseas, then after 1 year with the company, I've been to 5-6 countries - all paid for. Loving it!

Punters, According to Burbank, I'm two weeks off before moving in! They've poured the drive-way, looks pretty good (although, it was pretty dark at the time so I'm not 100% sure) There's not much left - few paint touch-ups, throw in the oven, canopy. I've picked up some home-theatre spec seats, pick...

The canvases (is that a word?) of your wedding pictures look great! Seems you've managed to find furniture that compliments them well also. Although, I don't have a clue as to what I'm talking about. Looks bloody good Erin! Has Aaron done his share and had a crack at the landscaping yet? Cheers, Big...

Hey Erin, Europe is expensive (obvious, but seriously 20 Euro / 28 AUD for a single serve of Lasagna and a large pizza? - which I might add was absolutely ****) Ahh well. Plans to move into Pakenham? Still a possibility. At the moment, there's about 4-5 countries where I can possibly live. It all de...

Gents and Birds, Just pushin' through the pile of work, and figured it was time to fire through an update on the progress of me house. On the same note - the blog is a lost cause. Everything is complete with the exception of: - Electrical fit-out - Carpet For those who are reading this thread, and h...
