Building a Wisdom Prosperity 23 - http://erwisdomprosperity.blogspot.com/ Re: Thorney's GJ Lewis Home...22/9 Slow but Steady Progress 858Sep 24, 2009 12:18 am Thanks everyone.... Mixed day progress wise today, but overall l'm pretty pleased at where we are now sitting. Due to the rain last night, the concrete pour didn't happen today. With rain forecast on and off for the rest of the week....it may not get done til next week now??....Funnily though l am not stressing about it not being done in time for handover.....which is odd for me! SS installed all the soap holders, toilet paper rings and towel rails. Though l just discovered this evening that we have no privacy locks on the Wc's, ensuite and bathroom doors, so will be giving him a call in the morning about that. Electricals are flying along and almost done.....Bar a couple of lights to be fitted (on order, waiting for plaster patches to dry) the inside of the house is finished. When l left late this evening, he was starting on the alfresco, and still had the switchboard and Startserve to do. It's going to be a long night and a very early morning for him as it all must be done by 10am tomorrow, as that's when the inspector is coming to do the Certificate Of Occupancy thingy. Have organised for Telstra to do their thing for Monday and l'm rapt with what will be our new phone number I can't wait to ditch the phone number we have now....l'd love a dollar for everytime l've had to say "you've got the wrong number" or, "no, this is not (insert 3 different businesses here)"..l'd be a very rich chick!! SS advised today that they'd like to hand over the house earlier I agreed of course (on the proviso that EVERYTHING is done) but it will also depend on how quick the bank takes with the handover cheque. To be honest, l doubt very much that we'll get handover any earlier and l'm totally fine with that. Have taken a heap of pics today....will post them tomorrow though Re: Thorney's GJ Lewis Home...22/9 Slow but Steady Progress 859Sep 24, 2009 7:35 am That's very exciting news Thorney! I reckon the bank would be a sticking point with trying to get an earlier handover which is annoying! If I don't hear anything today I need to ring mine to see how the inspection went and to see if I can collect the cheque the day before or not 'A bottle of wine contains more philosophy than all the books in the world.'
