We have our keys! Floorboard and carpet installation is organised for next Tues and Wed 7th and 8th of Sept, and the big move date is set for Saturday, 11th of Sept.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We have settlement of our current house on the 20th of Sept, which will allow us to get Stormwater, Tiling, AirConditioning Unit installation, Driveway, Fencing and Blinds organised soon after. We are in a bit of a catch 22 at the moment with waiting for settlement to access money, but needing things ready for when we move in, but needing to move before settlement. We'll get there. We always do.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Only 9 more weeks until little bub is here. Hard to believe how time has flown.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

We love you very much.</span><br />

Unfortunately, my dad's dad lost his battle, but he is now at rest without further pain. </span></div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Little bubs is fighting fit, with the 19 week ultrasound going well. It is kicking all the time and the obstetrician has supported that it will be a very active baby. D will be happy with that. </span></div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Back at school I completed my AST1 (Advanced Skill Teacher) which is a process that allows for recognition of the strengths and skills I bring to the job.</span></div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Our current house is still on the market. Seems like the interest is there, people are just being cautious with interest rates hovering, an election coming up and a lower demand in general. We are hoping a couple interested parties who will return again this weekend for an open inspection may actually put pen to paper.</span></div></li>
</ul><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Our beautiful Majestic is now nearing completion. The final fixings, painting, tiling, plumbing are all complete. Our 2nd Electrician is doing the final fix this week, leaving only the clean up to take to place. We have been given a walk through date of the 26th of July and Handover 1st of August. We just need to confirm with our work places for time off in the afternoon for this to happen.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Since my last post, there has been lots of action on site</span></div><ul><li><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">all tiling</span></div></li>

We have been given an approximate completion date for the end of July, which is exciting news. We will still have carpets, tiling, floor boards to install before moving in, but just knowing and being able to have a rough plan of time frame is wonderful. </span></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We are glad we put our house on the market when we did, it just means having to live immaculately for all the open inspections, so lots of tidying and cleaning all the time.

</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">These pictures are actually from over a week ago. Haven't had a chance to go past the house this past week as we are in the process of putting our current house on the market. Our real estate agent came around last night and we signed all the contracts ready for sale. Selling our current house has become a matter of priority with another building invoice received bringing the build to 90% completion. Still looking forward to hearing an approximate building completion date.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

Although there were a couple minor things that need addressing, all in all everything is looking good. On Thursday, we had a second walk through with the 2nd Electrician - J from Vision Living. I really can't recommend these guys enough as they have been so thorough with everything and ever so helpful. All the coloured cables are a sample of Vision's work.</span></div><br />

We have tried to source Insurance so we can work with the Electricians independently, but have kept coming up against a brick wall. Currently we are awaiting responses from 3 different sources to see if we can get covered, but also (with thanks to Dad) have another idea to try out when the working week starts. We hope to have this all sorted out this week. (1 year since our first electrical meeting)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">On site, the bottom level is now almost completely rendered and the frame for the garage roof has now been completed. It doesn't seem like there is now much left for the exterior to be completed.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We have contacted a new Independent Inspector after the last one became uncontactable. We had previously given him all our plans but then did not hear boo from him (over 3 weeks now, after 3 emails and 6 phone messages left on his phone). The new one turns out a bit cheaper, so that is a bonus.</span>TamDazhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16416317460761974797noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4730285425370022661.post-80704870929443214722010-02-20T16:45:00.000+10:302010-02-20T16:45:55.100+10:30The week of NOTHINGNESS!<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Nothing at all was done this week...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">another extension in time to the build - we now are up to a 19 day extension. <span style="font-size: small;">(Never mind that the electrician is in hospital - the delays are clearly caused by us as written in the extension request)</span></span><br />

Meanwhile, we will also continue trying to sort out the Electrical. We may now go through the Electricians independently (i.e. without the builder margins) but this means sorting out independent insurance. After yet another request for extension in time (now 13 days, for us delaying works), we will be putting in an official complaint to Head Office, outlining the delays and providing documentation showing how the delays have not been caused by US. Fingers crossed that maybe this week the Electrical will be sorted out once and for all (12 months since first meeting with the Electrician).</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

I have photos of the temporary doors and a new tap at the front of the house, but apart from that I have not been able to take pics of anything else new. From my understanding, the 1st Fix internal plumbing is now complete and the air conditioning is soon to follow. We received our variation today for all the Electrical work, so will spend some time Australia Day going through it with a fine tooth comb. Hopefully is it finally all sorted so we can sign and get that ball rolling. Will post a photo of our 'lovely' doors soon.

To cut a long story short, we now have a 3rd party coming on board who will take over just over half the work. This has been supported by our first electrician, so now Henley have come to the party and agreed to contract work out to the 3rd party. In the end, (although we are now waiting for revised quotes), everyone ends up happy, AND we end up with a much superior system. Now who can complain about that!</span><br />
