Finally we are in, there have been a few hiccups though, so updates are few and far between. I have to log my laptop over to the old house just to use the internet as we have satellite out here and they haven't moved the dish yet We are also having problems with power. There is not enough power to run the new house so we are trying to get a new transformer but ETSA won't come to the party. They want us to pay for it. I find that ludicrous as it's their property and they haven't done an upgrade since power was installed to the farm area some 50 years ago (I'm guessing the 50!!!) So in short we can't have the a/c running, make a cup of tea and have a shower or the power shuts off and then hubby has to drive over to the old house to turn it back on. A bit frustrating but it is making us aware of the power we use. You would think ETSA would want to make more money therefore by replacing the transformer they would increase revenue. We have thought about solar power and we do hope to go down this track one day but wasn't really on the plans in the immediate future. Cheerupcharlie - as soon as we have the satellite at the new house I will sit down and check out your whole thread, can't wait to see your kitchen!!! Happy building everyone!!! Re: YAY!
