Everyone walks around saying "we need the rain" - except those people who are having a home built. Still, as we've said before on this forum - look at the end date. As long as you move in on time, that's the important thing. Perry Re: Our slab is due to go down in the next few days so...... 4Jun 26, 2007 12:31 pm saw that story too!! But the official forecast doesnt seem so bad...just few showers and a bit windy tomorrow/wednesday...

Re: Our slab is due to go down in the next few days so...... 5Jun 26, 2007 1:13 pm We had our slab go down on wednesday last week. About a month overdue because of the rain - 10 acre blocks are great - except when the concrete truck can't get out into the middle of it to pour a slab because it's been raining and the truck will get bogged! Re: Our slab is due to go down in the next few days so...... 6Jun 26, 2007 1:58 pm Yep, My sister and co are building in FNQ, and they have been swamped for over 8 months - just can't get anything done.

OK, I'll admit it, we moved house on the Saturday of the June long weekend.... Yep, we drowned in the torrential rain that day, but at least we didn't cop the floods like those unfortunate people up the NSW central coast. Next time a drought needs breaking, we'll move house again! Re: Our slab is due to go down in the next few days so...... 8Jun 26, 2007 10:09 pm The rain has not stopped where I am on the south coast.
It would be interesting to see how many homes are on hold here. I feel sorry for people building at this stage, it will slow progress big time! Good luck to you all!
