I managed to get out of my grumpy mood by handover yesterday and just be happy to be IN. Yesterday was nuts but all the things that were meant to happen did happen. Our friends came over last night and we celebrated with quite a lot of wine so I'm feeling a little dusty this morning but I've woken to this view from my bed.

This is like reading a thriller! Good for us but terrible for you, Red. Unreliability is such a huge issue on the builder's and retailers' part. We had terrible stuff arounds with our fridge too. YOU HAVE ONE JOB PEOPLE and that's to make sure your products actually work/are delivered as promised to the customer. Very grrr.

Well our built in bin collapsed one night post handover. Called elba kitchens and they try and put the blame on us. Mind you the bin only had a bin bag in it. They will be coming out to fix it after the new year. Re: KDR Rawson Benham in Sydney 459Dec 30, 2016 8:58 pm Re: KDR Rawson Benham in Sydney 460Jan 19, 2017 12:02 pm We've been in coming up to four weeks now and it's definitely feeling like home. There are still quite a few things outstanding on Rawson's side, including a few that have been on the list for aaaaages like the stupid entry shelf which needs to be replaced. But our SS is back on deck now so hoping we'll start ticking things off the list. Meanwhile we're pretty organised inside. Just waiting on our dining table to be finished and we need a spare bed. Outside is a different story. Landscaper turned out to be a complete con artist. He's damaged our property so here we are less than a month in and we've made our first insurance claim. He's also run off with a fairly big chunk of our money which I'm not that confident we'll see again. So that sucks. And then yesterday we discovered squatters had smashed their way into our other house. Hasn't been a great week for us. We're trying to find a bright side though.
