Hi all,
Was wondering if you could give me some info. We've just received a notice from the council re our rear neighbours building a house and applying for a building…

Nice.. I love your floorboards

Just looked up that thermomix - looks interesting! How much does it actually cost? Do you think you will continue using it everyday?

Ours was: painting, then tiles, then touch-up painting

which city/town are you in?

I don't, but I would be interested in seeing pics because we are considering this colour also....

Thanks lacebark - that's exactly what I'm after

Hi - just wondering if avocado trees grow ok in Melbourne (with the cooler weather and all)? If so, are there any particular varieties that do better?
Also does anyone…

How annoying for you. Luckily you called otherwise it could have taken them much longer!

Thanks Dukekamaya. Not sure if it is coastal gray box..I assume it is because its fairly light like blackbutt. Will talk to the guy about your suggestions!

interesting!

Another con for the old house is that it only has 1 indoor bathroom (am I right in saying that?) when your kids are older it might be a bit…

I like the look of your floor plan - looking good!

I love the last 3 colours in the pics erinleigh has posted
