I hope you get to see the other half of the house very soon Bailey I feel your frustration and I hope you get that phone call today. S36 that is great that they pulled your brick work down straight away and also that your SS answered that time of the morning on a Saturday! Good luck to everyone starting their builds this week Jen great news on being locked up and your doors being changed. I hope you had a nice holiday and you certainly got a bargain with the plants. We are putting bamboo plants in our backyard as well as my husband really likes them. We have made a merbau screen for outside our main bathroom window & and we will put the bamboo plants in front of it. Tarsha I hope everything is going well in your new home. Well I received an email from Rawson on Friday with an invoice for the final payment and saying that we have a PCI on Wednesday. I'm a bit confused as we are not finished & the cleaners also started on Saturday. I imagine that there will be a lot of activity today & tomorrow! I asked my SS last week if I can hand in my notice to the real estate & he said not yet but I am going to do it today as I am sure we will be in by 4 weeks at the absolute latest! We are also up to week 26 now so they are running out of time & I think that's why they sent the email wrapping it up & wishing us luck in our new home. It said that they have 5-10 days after PCI to get the major things completed. So it looks like I might get my Mother's Day gift we installed our frameless shower screens on Saturday & they look fantastic. We also dug a big hole along the front for our hedges (our street has to have hedges as we are the first street in our estate) The tilers finished on Friday as well and its all starting to look finished now, I can't wait for the carpet & kitchen appliances to go in! Re: Our Benham 33 journey 2976Apr 29, 2013 9:49 am We also (kinda) had lockup last week, though the back stacker-door isn't on yet, the front door and the garage->house door are. Went past the house yesterday, and someone had jimmied opened our temp fence and the front door was opened and unlocked. Did a quick check around and nothing seemed damaged or broken, but will be letting the SS know Re: Our Benham 33 journey 2977Apr 29, 2013 10:00 am Not good Koroboo - thank goodness nothing is damaged or taken. Met with SS today at the house today. Fixout continues this week and waterproofing on Wednesday. Kitchen at the end of the week. Tiling starts at the beginning of next week. Been given a handover time of approx end of june beginning of july.

When did you sign your tender? Been plant shopping the last few days. Today we went to our favourite bamboo place on the Gold Coast and we have bought 20 bamboo plants that will grow 8-10 metres. They are usually $132 a pot and they had them on sale for $15 each. That will sort out the majority of one side of the block - the neighbours are going to be in shock as they are supposed to be very fast growing. We have also bought quite a few other plants, so it will be a full car and caravan on the way back. thanks Jen!!! we signed our tender in May 2012 ... although our land wasn't registered until Nov 2012 Re: Our Benham 33 journey 2979Apr 29, 2013 3:24 pm Quote: we signed our tender in May 2012 ... although our land wasn't registered until Nov 2012 You have had a long journey already. Hopefully they are quick for the build for you.
