Am starting to think it was an internal job as the house is like fort bloody knox. We have had heaps of trouble with our crappy cornice guy and he has been called back a few times. I wasnt happy to pay him until he was done. I know he was short of money. I dont think the tools will be used, but rather sitting in some cash converters! Ho hum the show must go on. Rob we will be installing those things this week. Love the idea of scaring the bastards away with sirens!!!!

Boy we started eons before you. Looking forward to some pics! I have to say that a little part of me is envious of those folks that build with a builder and move in to a completed house ... although i like knowing that i have been part of every bloody decision!!!!!!! I think we have to meet and have a drink to celebrate our achievements!!!!! k Re: Schloss am Meer .... two weeks til move in! 218Jun 29, 2011 12:29 am I'm having July off work (or as much as possible) to knock off the rest of the work and watch the greatest sporting event on the planet! All the wet areas are finished. I just need to do my kitchen and shelving in the robes. Then put in my timber floors and built in cupboards in family, study and theatre. Then the myriad of other little bits and pieces. I wanted the house completey finished before we moved in but my wife can hardly contain herself, so as soon as the inside and driveway is done then we will move in.

I can see you know drill in one hand, cupboard in another eyes glued to the telly!!!! I cant believe how quick you have gone. The final run is really really exciting! A plan all coming together!!!!!!!! What I love most is that the hiccups will be over soon!!!!! At least when I move in I will not have to cowtail to one more bloody person!!! I am over it!
