A friend's partner has made up a heap of alcoholic ginger beer which he said we are to have for a slab party but I am not too sure what it shall be like Ryan Oliver and Mundie Mansion: Thanks, I plan to enjoy my week and a bit off, probably will do more stalking than usual after the Easter break as I have some leave from work Hels and Thorney: Definately will be cracking a bottle of something this weekend Donuts: I was totally speechless when I drove up yesterday and saw it all finished, almost needed to make sure that I was at the right block as I have been mowing this block for about 6-7 years now and to finally be in the process of building my home I was really moved I too hope that the frame shall start next week and maybe some windows, but we shall see Hope that everyone has a great Easter Re: My C@ventry 33 - Slab to house done today 66Apr 10, 2009 10:17 am Congratulations Tillie!!!!
