Coming along nicely Phoenix.... Ahead of schedule
Strange about Carlisle having the wire cage for a bin.... We got a real one! I'm pretty sure it's not just the builders using it too! Shhhh... well we did pay for it after all.

your house will have caught up with mine by the end of the week - we had our slab poured in mid-December but then all work stopped for the christmas break and they won't be back on site till next week. Its driving me crazy! (we are building the Carinya with Henley at Point Cook) Ours was similar to yours in that it looked like there would be no way that the boxing up would be done in time for the slab to be poured but amazingly they get it all done in one day. So anyway congratulations on getting this far. It looks like we may go through the next building stages together (you better not get ahead of me tho'!) cheers Trina[/url] Re: READY.....SET.....

I suppose the balance will be done tomorrow.... not sure when the pour will be....possibly Saturday or Monday...or if they are REALLY GOOD, it could be late tomorrow, but with another 40+degree day planned i doubt it very much....
