Re: Introductions Please! 145Jul 28, 2009 12:33 pm Welcome aboard all you newbies Layla, to post pics you need to join an external hosting site like Photobucket, free to join, sometimes takes a bit of practice before you get the hang of using it but once you know how, it is a sinch - I think there is a thread somewhere talking you through it. Re: Introductions Please! 146Jul 28, 2009 3:53 pm Thank you SOOOO much Helyn!!! I did it in less than 5 mins and have already been able to post a pic . Yay, now I can post all my plans, etc... and blog away. Thank you Layla Mum to 3 kids (including hubby) Building in SE Melbourne. Land settled 17/07/09. Contract signed 01/07/09.

Re: Introductions Please! 147Jul 28, 2009 7:55 pm Your'e welcome I read your thread about carpet/tiles - you can actually go one better with posting so the picture is shown on your post, other readers do not have to click on it to see it. When you have selected your picture, go to the IMG code, the bottom code in the list of 4 options, copy that and paste it into your post. If you preview your post you will see the picture there. http://i644.photobucket.com/albums/uu167/rach3395/Smiley%20Faces/cheers.gif Re: Introductions Please! 148Sep 05, 2009 8:49 pm Hello, im building in the SE suburbs with NBG. hope to meet with others doing the same, cheers Re: Introductions Please! 149Sep 05, 2009 8:59 pm Hi all, I'm Erin and I'm a homeone alcoholic...

Re: Introductions Please! 151Sep 08, 2009 3:03 pm Hi, I'm Helen we are a couple of weeks away from starting renovations to our house.

Re: Introductions Please! 152Sep 08, 2009 4:54 pm Hi all, I'm Dan, from Maryland in Newcastle. Just about to do a kitchen makeover, also doing a few bits n pieces around the home. Been lurking on the forums for a couple of months and have found it to be easily the best of its kind, so much good info and pics. Anyway, I'm looking forward to sharing stories, tips, pics etc etc with everyone. Cheers, Dan. Re: Introductions Please! 153Sep 08, 2009 6:17 pm Hi y'all We are the proud parents of two young boys. After renting for a number of years and living a fairly laidback lifestyle for years...we've decided to put some skin in the game and build our First Home. The location of our home will be in the North West area of Sydney known as The Ponds, NSW 2769. This is an excellent site for information and I hope to contribute where I can as we, like many of you go through the various stages of building a home. cheers Berny ----------------------------------------------------- http://serenityattheponds.blogspot.com/ Re: Introductions Please! 154Sep 28, 2009 12:31 am Hi all, I came across this site by accident, so I've been having a little sticky beak and decided to join the forum. I'm in the residential building industry and have been for many years. I'm a specialist designer & estimator in the 'Traditional or Colonial' style of home. I'm involved in all aspects of the building from conceptual design, full end design, full building cost estimates and take-offs, through to material selection, specification writing and contract preparation & execution. I have completed the building construction course but currently have no desire to obtain a builders' licence. But yes I do get out on site with my builder to pickup on the practical side. I really enjoy doing what I'm doing and hopefully I may be of some help, or at least offer some advice where possible. I look forward to being part of the team!! Thanks, Tony. It's all in the planning Re: Introductions Please! 155Oct 07, 2009 4:20 pm Hi Everyone, My name is Shonelle, im 20 and building my first home all my my wee self! Ok...spose it helps that i work in financial planning, I know my builder, my partner is an electrican and my family are plasterers and brickies! Ive just signed my contracts to build 3x2 in Aubin Gardens, now in the process of final approval from the bank and working out everything for pre-start and the landscaping!

Have a good day Shonelle Garden - viewtopic.php?f=19&t=44214&p=670323#p670323 Decorating - viewtopic.php?f=6&t=47218&p=715743#p715743 Re: Introductions Please! 156Oct 07, 2009 7:03 pm Gday Everyone. Just thought i would introduce myself as i have already posted a few replies, mainly to do with Termite related questions. I am 26, live on the beautiful Mid North Coast of NSW with my wife, also 26 and 2 children, aged 3 (boy) and 1 (girl). We own and operate our small family home based business which we started from scratch 5 years ago. I have been in the pest industry for 9 years, in which i have worked on all facets of pest control, both pre & post construction, residential and commercial, and all general pest control solutions using chemical, non-chemical and physical control solutions. I am passionate about camping in our camping trailer, sustainable living, being as environmentally friendly as possible and spending quality time with our families. If anyone has any questions at all in relation to termite control measures, general pest questions etc please do not hesitate to PM me or post a topic. Forums are a wealth of information, and this forum has already helped me with info on building a new deck and fence. Thanks Re: Introductions Please! 157Oct 11, 2009 5:03 pm Hello Everyone, My names Max, i'm almost 19 and i live in Erskine Park, Western Suburbs of Sydney. I've got an avid interest in property development and love nothing more than looking through display homes and homeguides, just thinking of the potential of each and every home i see. i only found this forum yesterday; but from what i've read, there is a bunch of genuine people with real experience and knowledge and i really look forward to learning a hell of a lot more. thanks for having me, Re: Introductions Please! 158Oct 12, 2009 11:06 pm Hello Everyone My name is Janice and I am about to build up a house with my dear boyfriend/fiancée It is our first real home together, except for the flat we where living before that actually belonged to his sister who let us use it because she was off working in another country.
