Tap tap....

Had a busy day today, first call to the bank to pay for our lovely slabby. Then off to Romeo homes to return a revised site plan and get an update on progress.

Our framers are slightly delayed and now won't commence till next week, which is fine with us. I appreciate the update.

Seeing I had time to kill, thought I would visit the area anyway. What a hive of activity in our street! Checked on Tash's site and the drainage was underway, the same was happening on our new neighbors across the road, that swimming pool has disappeared! Other forum friends were having their slab poured. Visited the lovely Deb and told her how much we miss her wisdom, she says that her phone/Internet is supposed to be connected tomorrow!!!!

Called into the sales office too and found out that much to our relief, the house being built to our right is a single story - yay!!!!!

Then visited no. 1 son who can get great deals on bathroom supplies and ordered all my taps & bathroom accessories for the house - exciting!!!

By this stage it's 1.45 so a little retail therapy was the order of the day - god I love house days off! No cleaning or study done today - shame about that :(

Glad to hear the pool has gone. Thanks for the update! Must start arranging house days off they sound much better than the alternative.

We have gone for Posh Bristol lever taps, very fitting with the style of the house, plus a Scala mixer for the kitchen and tastics for the bathrooms, towel rails, loo paper holders, etc. got the whole lot in one hit. So lucky to have a son that works for a major plumbing supplier!
