Anyway, our frame was still being put up today (3rd day) it was possibly finished off this evening, I'm not sure. I did a recon stalk at 5pm but the guys were still working, I wanted to get out and take photos for hubby who is away and hasn't seen any of this yet, but checking things out 3 times in one day is just embarrassing. I will have a peek again tomorrow morning. Question! for those who have the corner stacker doors to alfresco (with no corner post) does the frame come with the support post in the middle and it is removed later? Cause we definitely have a post there at the moment. I'm sure it's right but thought I would see if others had noticed this. Sarah not sure if I have asked before but what is your blog details . Sarah Thanks Sarah we have.

Had we been told that at colours that it will only be one side I would've spent my money elsewhere or not at all! Anything to meet a quota I guess. One very unhappy customer by the day here now ! Read your colour documents everyone cause it's the bible Hi Cwiseman, Did they seriously just stain one side of the door? How off would that look! You walk to the front of the house and it's a beautiful stain you shut the door and its white (or whatever colour you picked)? Can you post a pic! I'd really like to see that. Anyway we went to get out colour folder today. It was fun and we'd only been on the walk through. Looks like house work is going to suffer for a few days while I spend every spare moment checking this put and going through it with a fine tooth comb. Hey safaa81, We are going to the colour walk through next week! Then I'll be like you, spending every spare sec on it! I'm just wondering if all the prices are listed on the colour folder too? As far as I recall, some people said there is no price on the booklets ... ? Hi AKG, We had a base tender of $592 for 31 squares from MC Donald Jones. It looks relatively cheaper than other builders. But I assume there are many hidden things that… 1 17848 Hi, Apologies - I know there is plenty out there on this but struggling to put together the puzzle.
