Its nice seeing it all take shape, however we were pretty good at estimating blocks but then I thought 2 tonne of base for the stones would be enough, not, 10 tonne later and and we are still needing more. we now have all dirt out the front due to the excavator smoothing things out for us, so we may have to lay turf, so a few things I did not estimate for, but loving the design of our bronte and loving where we live.

Congrats David We went on the construction list at the beginning of last week. Nothing has happened yet though. We did get a call from the Area Manager the other day that said he is passing our file over to the slab supervisor who should be in contact with us shortly. My partner said the Area Manager sounded really nice and also very accommodating. Just hope our slab supervisor and our site supervisor will be the same. Just can't wait for things to begin.
