Re: Tiawamutu's House Build
Hi Tiawamutu, just started reading your thread - all 10 pages of it!!! 
Very good so far, and i'm liking the pictures, I hope it all goes well for you and I will definitely be watching the build, as we hope to move out to Brissie later this year and start building our own house several months after landing, I think it's better that way, because you get exactly what you want, and the house is more personalised. Anyway good luck with the build and I look forward to the following posts (I wonder how long this thread will be by the time we are finished?!?!?!?!? 
)

I know what you mean about the length of the thread. There's a long way to go before it will be completed. I've took around 120 pictures already!

Re: Tiawamutu's House Build
Went up today, as the builder had texted me to say the concrete was all down now. He said the garage floor would be done just before the house is finished.
He texts me whenever anything happens, which is great
Here are the pictures I took today of the holes for the alfresco pillars and front porch pillars

Re: Tiawamutu's House Build
I have been told that some people have parties on their slab (or a few drinks)
Has anyone else heard of this?

Re: Tiawamutu's House Build
Slab has dried out a bit more today, so we thought we'd take a picture of each other on it
(Me and hubby)
Oh and just realised, hubby forgot to smile
