A clear block and some headaches!

Not too much has happened since our initial post....

I say not too much, however the block is finally cleared, and in the process of cleaning up the last tiny bit of concrete... this happened!!!




The demolition had gone beautifully and right at the last second the neighbours garage had a slight run in with a massive excavator... points win to the excavator. Needless to say we were devastated and felt awfully responsible!! Our lovely new neighbours were great about it so hopefully insurances get it fixed very quickly so we can look them in the eye again.

The Demo company had done such a wonderful job, and it was another guy taking care of the last bit! Needless to say, his future prospects with the company would be questionable at best!

Anyway to balance the bad with the good, here's the block all clear ready for Porter Davis to begin!


We also had a minor blip at the end of the week with news our Kitchen Island would need a slight re-think as the Sink (promotional item) and the Bin Drawer (again, promotional item), wouldn't quite fit in said kitchen Island! We panicked a bit thinking extra stone (massive dollars) or no bin (massive smell) or single sink (massively angry wife) would be the solution. But Vanessa (Kitchen Guru) found that a slight tweak to the size of the Island was all that was needed to fix. A very slight price increase but better to nip now than nip onsite when someone tells you the sink doesn't fit!

So all to do now is attend PD on Wednesday for official Contract Signing!
