Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Peas are getting a new Pod...tiling pics...almost there 241Sep 14, 2011 6:55 pm Yes Mclaren it has felt quick, even quicker since lock-up! It's been 22 weeks since siteworks started, only 19 weeks if you count it from slab pour. Not bad for a double brick home built over winter Tinkster I knew someone would tell me off for not including photos DH got to show his mate through the house on Sunday while the plumber was there. Of course he didn't have his phone on him, so no pics. He didn't want to take it while digging trenches and who would expect a tradie there on a Sunday anyhow I've been to visit (no surprise), but not been inside, so my pics aren't great!
