Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Clarendon Home- Update- Close To the End 61Jul 28, 2009 8:24 pm We weren't there for the report but am assuming all went well since the money is on its way Have been packing flat out today and the kids are wanting the things that are packed of course I will have my fingers and toes crossed for tomorrow Re: Clarendon Home- Update- Close To the End 62Jul 28, 2009 8:29 pm Hhaha tell the kids every box they point at contains sheets and cleaning products. They wont be interested at all!! I love unpacking. I hate packing. ITS AWFUL. I end up throwing a heap of stuff out. Cos that is too old or ugly to go in the new house. hah. I want everything new!! ( i know its possible but i dont want to bring any clutter with me) DH always go through the rubbish bags that I throw out when we pack to "SAVE" a heap of that he feels we cant live without. Surely, nobody needs a stubbie cooler from 1991 with holes in it???? Living in Caloundra Thread****** Lovin my house all finished!!!

She lives at the other end of the street. She was joking of course. Can you just IMAGINE what those loos look like after all the tradies have been using them? OMG!
