My Apologies Lynne Anywho! It was Jodie that decided off with my head. Ahhhhggghhh On the way home I noticed Roofing , Eve stuff and guttering on site that cant be installed without achieving plate height, which aint gonna happen with no bricks to finish the job.

Re: Building Rivervale - Shiftin' Bricks 74Jan 16, 2010 3:28 pm Chedasha wow great plan. Sorry to hear they are taking their sweet time getting it built. Very funny thread though I a lot. Many Thanx Chedasha, a few laughs to keep me sane ( nope thats a bit optimistic , and at the very least a bit too late ) Today's Tip #47 : Always carry a tub of butter with you, that way if you get your head caught between the railings on a staircase, simple grease up your ears and slide on out! Got bricks delivered this morning to complete to plate height. Builder says there is only half a days work to be done and then the chippy's can commence on Wednesday. Will believe this when it happens. Rang CLO yesterday and she was on the phone, reception said " do you wish to leave a message " Nope Ill Hold Thanks. 3 minutes later " she is still busy on the phone " No Ill hold some more 5 minutes late still on the phone Ill Hold thanks 8 minutes later still on the phone " I would like to leave a message, please have the CLO phone me within the hour or I will personally visit them this arvo to discuss where my brick are" Oh CLO is off the phone now. Yep Thought that may be the case. hence Bricks delivered on a saturday morning\ Forkin Builders Timeline Aug 08-Land Mar 09-Demo/Titles Sept 10-Handover No1 Sept 11-Handover No2 April 12-Sold No2 Aug 14-Land/Demo Jan 15-Slabs viewtopic.php?f=31&t=25736 Re: Building Rivervale - Shiftin' Bricks 75Jan 16, 2010 4:38 pm Well worth the wait holding on then....
