SORRY FIFI I WROTE MY SUGGESTION BEFORE I READ YOUR POST!!!

I would like to make a proposal that we form a committee and have a meeting one night in the next few weeks to brainstorm ideas on how we are going to attack this situation. We need to get the important people involved...... I am going to pay a visit to the sales office probably on Friday to see wha...

Wow - the meeting was quite intense. I'm so glad SO many people turned up! I agree, the facilitator of the meeting was not up to scratch and some people who spoke were a little rude which was upsetting, but understandable given the emotions people are obviously experiencing - I think the facilitator...

Dear Jim, Thank you so much for joining this forum and writing to us all to inform us that you have our support. It means a lot to us. As you can see we are a very unique tight-knit community here at Geores Fair, almost like a family, so when we see something trying to threaten our way of life we ar...

It depends which builder you go with. I know with M we didn't connect electricity until handover and they used their own generators to fund electricity during the build. Other builders like EBH make you connect first up and you pay for your electricity during the build. We rang and registered for th...

The petition is a great idea and I think we should all be very vocal to council to stop this going ahead. Dreamgirl - if it helps, I would still buy here regardless, we really do love living here - the people, the parks..... it's great. So I would say BUY!!! And just cross your fingers they don't go...

Hi all, sorry I've been MIA - been quite busy lately and also 6mths pregnant and struggling lol My husband and I are IRATE about this proposal (Paul we did finally end up getting the yellow envelope) and will both be there on 31 may. Will have to email them today to book. If this goes ahead we will ...

We were going to go to the Easter show but not sure if I want to know - the waiver you have to sign allows GF to take photos of your kids to use in advertising and that doesn't sit well with me. My wife Kate read the waiver. She saw nothing about photos for advertising, it was more about the chocol...

Hi Bec,lovely kitchen,do u know what colour your kickboards are?? thanks I think they are called laminate Luxor? They look like a stainless steel finish but were not an upgrade as they are the normal laminate. Saved a bit of cash by doing that!! And it goes beautifully with our metallic silver spla...

Love the pendant lights you've got there. Would like something like that I think in mine possibly. We have actually lowered them a little since this photo. They are from the xenon range at beacon lighting - I fell in love with them as soon as I saw them!!!

Hi everyone... Just a quick question for anyone that might know this... we've been advised by our builder they'd have to cut about 200mm off our house to comply with the set backs requirements... does anyone know if we could challenge the council on this so we don't need to cut the 200mm? I know &q...

We went with St George and had absolutely no issues with them whatsoever. We handed in out application and the valuation came back ok within 2 days.

Gaz I asked my neighbour about the driveway and apparently the cost was already subsumed in her site costs so in the original contract with EBH. So she paid for it essentially. Is it anywhere in your contract?
