The two different shower heads in your ensuite look ridiculous... as if you would purposely choose that! I’m sure you will get it sorted though and your flooring is lovely - B A vue of the pines on the Gold Coast forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=87210 Re: Katrina's 2nd home build - Gympie 282Jan 11, 2018 9:43 pm Bridgetwitch Love your black sink!

It's really coming together now. Flooring went down this week. Shower screens and wardrobe doors went in today. Flyscreens are here to be installed after final clean, which is booked for Tuesday. So two working days left to get tiler back to finish off a couple of things, plumber to come back and install pump and hot water system and kitchen mixer, electrician to come back and wire up pump and hotwater system and the taylex guy needs to come back and get the treatment plant up and running. Doesn't sound like much, but with our builder's track record of organising their trades, I'm still not confident enough to submit final invoice for a 2nd time to the bank. Not really keen to look like a d!ck again.

It all happened very quickly. I submitted final payment on Tuesday, valuer came Wednesday and the bank had the money in our account Thursday. We had handover at about 6pm Thursday, and had enough moved that night to stay in here the night. Everything is moved now, but not very organised yet. Still have to unpack the truck of hubby's shed stuff, i swear loading all that crap was harder work than ALL the house stuff combined. Here are a couple of move in pics. More to come as i get things organised.

I might get around to it this time! Glad to see you are all settled in. Love the fridge. It looks like a perfect fit Thank you so much everyone. This all makes a lot of sense.
