And they are still saying we can't get NBN even though the telstra tech that came out said we can and we are in the available part of the rollout map. So we are on ADSL but it isn't too bad. It is just nice to have internet lol. Our driveway was finally poured on Monday morning after several holdups from the rain. It still needs to be acid washed and sealed. The decking has finally started. Hubby is building that so it may take a while lol. In the meantime, we have old carpet on our patio (better than dirt). It actually works quite well and we can still use it. Hubby was out there vacuuming yesterday lol. Re: Modified Coral Cloncurry. We have keys!! 812Nov 10, 2017 7:36 am Looks like a bigger bed is needed!! You could have my problem where the bed is too big and we have no room for bedsides Looking gorgeous tam!!! Re: Modified Coral Cloncurry. We have keys!! 813Nov 16, 2017 12:33 pm Love the updates its all beautiful. We only just got internet last tue so 3mths since we were in same issue no cable across the road and then the lines between the garage to study have faults....not even going to bother ringing Coral over it just means we can never connect it in the study!! https://www.homeone.com.au/member/bribiebell Re: Modified Coral Cloncurry. We have keys!! 814Nov 23, 2017 8:03 am It's all looking fabulous Tamara! I just love the size of your ensuite. Love your bedside pendants too and you're right, just buy a king size with the right shaped bed frame and all should be good! At least the internet is up and running for you. Look forward to seeing your deck come along. My thread can be found here - I hope! https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=89313 Re: Modified Coral Cloncurry. We have keys!! 815Nov 23, 2017 6:25 pm Hey everyone. I thought I would update. It feels like progress has been slow but we have been working on huge projects with limited time. Our main deck is almost finished. Hubby just has to tidy up the ends and put pool fencing up. We also need to build the deck around the pool which we will step down to from the main deck. We also have to stain the decking. It is huge! Approx 18m x 5m. Love it though it makes our huge 8 seater outdoor setting look tiny lol. We have an outdoor lounge to bring up from the shed but we are still having to hose the deck down daily to get the tanin out so will wait until that is all done first.

Visitors have to "walk the plank" t enter our house at the moment lol Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ The driveway and front path was finally done 2 weeks ago. We are happy with how it turned out.

I put a veggie garden in a couple of weeks ago which is something I missed when we were renting. I will put more in once the fill that was dumped there is removed. My niece and nephew are visiting from NZ and they helped me water it this morning. We currently have 13 staying in our house lol.

We have a lot of work to do but we are loving living here Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Modified Coral Cloncurry. Driveway and decking pics. 816Nov 23, 2017 6:37 pm Oh and an update on internet... We finally got adsl on after arguing with telstra and NBN over whether or not we could get NBN (Other neighbours were told we could, telstra tech said we could and the rollout map said we could. NBN and Telstra said we can't. Anyway, next door neighbour finishes their build and moves in and the next day (after the move) the NBN tech is there connecting them to NBN. WTF?? We call telstra to demand NBN and the person hubby spoke to said it was obvious we could get NBN and "I will set it up now for you". So we will have NBN in the next few days lol. The guy was at a loss as to why they thought we couldn't get it. So frustrating. Also, I had an amazing carving made in Bali for the feature recess in our bedroom. It is 1.6m x 1.3m. Weighs 18kg. We just have to work out how to hang it lol. It doesn't look that big in the pic but it is huge. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Modified Coral Cloncurry.

Concrete looks great too, never new they did a black exposed Re: Modified Coral Cloncurry. Driveway and decking pics. 820Dec 08, 2017 8:31 pm Your deck is massive its all looking great, would really love a pool. Love the Bali carving too, we are going in June and will hopefully be near the end of our build hoping to get some artwork done. Hi, as per the subject. Does anyone have any recommendations for the best value decking oil (Bunning is close to where I live) for a treated pine deck? Thanks 0 1290 Ask the council if there is a chance of getting build over easement exemption. Sometimes easements are unused and 24cm is not all that much. Good luck. And yes any builder… 2 7212 Use a product like Equisol's Vitalise to clean the deck then coat with a penetrating timber oil. It will look 10 years younger and add value to your home.
