Thought I should fomrerly introduce myself, obviously "arkraider", aka Gavin. The minister for war and finances, , aka my wife, aka is Vanessa
I stumbled accross the site the other week and got stuck right into the forums and peoples blogs, I will be getting going to soon I hope..
My wife and I are going to be building our first, new, home later this year, we hope. We are in the Sth Eastern Suburbs and bought in a brand new estate, stage 1 purchase.
We had been originally looking at estalished homes first but nothing took our fancy and wrong blocks or estates. This was a good 8 -10 months ago.
The wife likes things done now and everything has its place, typical woman thinking . I won't win friends with that comment but... It is true. I am typical man, love gadgets, electronic or not and things will happen in time.
My wife hates looking at display homes, cause they all look a like after a while, they do to a degree, but we don't want to admit that. but we ended up finding the house we wanted to build, or at least I did. I am note wuite sure if she agreed because she also did like it very much as well or she coul not possibly look at any more homes
She will be doing the inside stuff, except the theatre room.
And my areas will be the outside and theatre room.
Anyway don't want to bore you guys to much, so no more room to type....
