Yeah get services bill sent there. I was told by my bank manager about the drop in thing. Not sure if it was a scare tactic, but he said people were getting busted for renting the joint out.

The interesting thing is, if you have enough for the initial deposit without the $7k FHOG, depending on what you're getting in rent - you could well be better off not using FHOG and just renting the bugger straight away.

Got a big chip/chunk out of my almost Shaz-like front bar this morning!!

Another car ran over what looked like half a house brick. Which broke into bits and chucked a 40mm diameter piece of brick at my front bar. :(

Lukily only left a 10mm and 3mm wide gash, black hole looking thingy.

Touch up paint to the rescue!!

Where I'm building, the average rent for 3x2 is about $400, so I'd be in front by two and a half grand if I could get tenants immediately - which shouldn't be too difficult on a new house.

That rate could also obviously go down over the next year.

Yeah mate. And it wasn't even my fault. :(
Had nowhere to go on a 5 lane road full of traffic (yes, we have them in Adelaide)

Made a mighty big thud. I'm just happy it didn't pierce the radiator.

Should be done by July, apparently.

We'll see. But it's all moving forward.

Sux.


I washed the mighty n/a yesterday.

It's had a big whack in the rear bar, paints all cracked and the bar is out of shape. This missus said someone must have hit her while she was parked. I tend to believe her as if she backed into something she would have felt it.

Dammit. The bar was only painted just over a year ago!

If I told you I was a compulsive liar, would you believe me?

Not really, it's off the plan.

I'll see if they don't have one online.

Still deciding whether or not to completely pimp the kitchen.

Don't know if I want to live there or rent it.

?

"A Sunday drive has ended in a $3 million nightmare, with eight Ferraris, three Mercedes-Benzes and a Lamborghini involved in a 14-car pile-up in Japan.
Police said the pile-up happened on the Chugoku Expressway in Yamaguchi Prefecture about 10.15am yesterday, with 10 people hospitalised with minor injuries.

Japan's largest English language newspaper, The Daily Yomiuri, reported the crash happened on a curve of the road and one Mercedes-Benz was driving in the oncoming lane."

Ahh so you didn't have the house designed?

Damn carparks! Seriously. I think every time I go to town I cop a ding. People down here aren't too flash at car park driving.

I have just never known anyone to buy off the plan :P not having a go at ya haha. My Uncle is a builder and also designs a lot of the houses his business builds for customers at their request, think because of that I have just always thought that when you build a house you build it to the way you want it

Dad got back to his car the other day and someone had raped the rear bar with a trolley.

People just don't care anymore?

Looks pretty cool :D.

Are the floors proper wooden floorboards or those floating floorboards?

Also, Sydney.. when did you become London?
