Haha. Yeah is definitely not a bad thing. Might have to pick a different country to cook from this time. We had Indian left over for about a month after last time! :D

Really? Wow, good luck Twiggy! I must say I don't envy you!! Yeah we needed to downsize due to Ash's health. So we figure it's easier if we bite the bullet now and do it while it's still affordable and manageable for us! :)

Will be building again in a few months. Chosing a house plan at the moment :)

Were any of these done by the builders or they all done post handover? Whatever flooring we go with, will be done by the builder. We did our own last time and don't want to go through that hassle again, even if it was much cheaper Thanks :)

Has anybody here taken the flooring option of laminate flooring through the builder (Preferably Henley). I'd like to know how they have held up since you've taken possession of your house. Have they started lifting and so on. I'm not a huge fan of them, but my wife is contemplating them, so I'm tryi...

Random update: Those rocks in the garden are the most devine place to sit down and have a couple of jars and smokes ;)

In fairness though, if the developer hadn't of insisted that you change your facade, twice, you would probably be on your way already. As for the building permits, I think that's something that's handled by the council? We were fortunate in that our council were extremely quick with ours (Was done i...

I like how your house is progressing along ma'am :)

Howdy :) Which part of 6B are you in? If you haven't already, look us up on Facebook. We've got about 140 residents in the group now, so you might be able to find some neighbours on there :D

What are my options like to get more cabling done after moving in? When we did up the plans for our house my wife had just been diagnosed, so to be honest I didn't have my head in the right spot and I've missed a few things. Nothing I want done is extravagant, mainly things like not having anywhere ...

Thanks guys :) If I remember I'll take some internal pics over the weekend, before it gets destroyed by the Christmas lunch shinanigans ;) I'm actually pretty happy with the rocks in the garden. When the landscaper first suggested it, I was pretty dubious about it, but we decided just to go with it ...

Wow that took you a fair while Freidy. Hopefully you'll have a smooth run post handover and can forget the dramas :) We actually haven't had any issues post handover. Everything has been first rate. Only problems with our house are the ones we created for ourselves by not looking where I was putting...

Wow. That's monstrosous! :D

Weren't kidding about the size of the excavator! Look forward to seeing the end results

Moved in two months ago now :) Our curtains went in a week ago and the carpet went in a few weeks before that. Feels so much more homely now. We're still waiting on one fence to get finished though (Should of been done about a month ago). It's stopping us from bringing the dogs over though, so that'...

We've been in our house for two months already :O

Haven't been around for a few months, and there are some pretty houses going up :) Fair few of these were only just starting or in planning phases then lol. Eli-Kay, we had a lot of silver sheens in our old front yard which was starting to go hedgish before we sold. Loved them. Our estate gives free...

2 months in and the only thing I really hate is how I overlooked the positioning of two light switches. They're in stupid to reach spots lol. Honestly outside of missing a couple of powerpoints, there's not a thing I wouldn't do again with my house. Would maybe try and include a butler pantry into t...
