They took away the rubbish cage and toilet. SS advised the plumber has been booked for 10th Jan. Passed in our house at auction last Thursday night will have to see what the new year brings on that front, all that cleaning for nothing. I am waiting waiting waiting for quotes from landscapers, concreters, but I guess everyone is flat out getting jobs done before Xmas. Havent had much time on H1 work is flat out, finish on Thursday and cant wait for holidays, really need a break. I'm glad you girls are all settled I did make sure I came on today to see how you both were going and am really pleased for you both. Site Start: 10th September, 2010 PCI : Friday 27th January, 2011.

Good luck for selling in the new year. Getting quotes out of people can be difficult. Hopefully someone calls you back and you can get organised. Not too much longer and you'll be on holidays. I hope you get lots of rest.

Hopefully some good news on the selling of the house, after it was passed in at Auction we had a young couple come to have a look after Xmas and loved it - they put in an offer,we accepted but was subject to Pest and Building Inspections and finance, we just had the Pest and Building Inspections done and they have until 19th Jan to finalise their finance, so hopefully this week we get some good news. Unfortunately the house market in our area has dropped and we didnt get the price we really wanted, but we are happy enough to accept this offer can get the house off our hands. They young couple are renting and want a quick settlement which is 22nd Feb which gives me time to get a few things done to the new house before moving in. Had a walk thru with our SS last Friday morning and we picked up a few minor things which he is getting fixed. We have our PCI booked for the 27th Jan and I will be pushing for handover on 4th Feb. So have booked our cooling to be installed on the 7th Feb, Flooring booked for a start on the 8th Feb, they want 3 days to lay the floor boards and a day to lay the carpet. Cant believe it's taking that long. Still finalising concreting to be done and hopefully will give the flooring people one day to get their stuff inside and book the concreter for 10th Feb. Even though we wont be able to drive on it for a week, we can walk on it after 2 days, have told the removalists we have to leave the truck on the crossover and walk the furniture in (it's only a 4 meter driveway, so not that bad). Removalists booked for Monday 14th Feb. I cant believe it's nearly time, it's almost surreal, cant believe it's all coming to an end. So hopefully we get the good news this week on the sale and our handover of the new house can happen on the 4th Feb (as I dont want to re-schedule all these trades I have booked). Pics from last year, I forgot my camera on the walkthru so will take some more this week. Bathroom tiles - all pics are not grouted as yet. They look so much better grouted - I have gone for white grout and someone told me that Bunnings sell a grout sealer, so that is one of the first things on my list to do when I get the keys.
