You do not want to miss it if possible lol Kat Re: NoAnchovy's building the Blackwood @ Oyster Harbour Estate 15Oct 19, 2009 11:04 pm OH!!! If you can possibly bring prestart forward a bit so you can still go... definately do it... cause you have to make sure you include absolutely everything!!! Cause changes will cost you But when i did my prestart, after i'd gone back to work she emailed me a list of my changes so i could look over them before signing off on them. Maybe you could do that too? viewtopic.php?f=31&t=22766 - my build thread! Time waits for no man. Unless that man is Chuck Norris.

Maybe you could do that too? You were lucky. The minute we signed in the office. Not allowed to take them overnight or anything. Then we couldn't make any changes. I think that's wrong. They are quick to take the money but don't like you to do any changes at all.
