Help finding particular style of bed with drawers

Hi everyone,
I'm moving into a new apartment soon and the bedroom is quite limited in space. I've been looking for a particular style of bed but haven't been able to…

Lucky you. I don't understand why only 6B was connected and not all the other stages.
Was wondering whether you knew anything about how it was connected. I've currently got…

So soon!
I'm not sure of what's available now as I haven't been looking around, but I'm connected with Bigpond at the moment. Spending around $90 a month with 200GB…

When are you due to move in? Hopefully it's done by the time you move in right?
Any reason why they don't just roll it out for the entire estate…

A bit of a late reply, but if you're referring to NBN, then no. We don't have that available here yet, there aren't any plans for this area as far…

Verandah pricing

Hi guys,
Just got a few quotes for a verandah out the back.
It's roughly around 5m x 4m in area.
Stratco has given a quote of roughly $3k for supply…

Solar Deck Lighting

Hi guys,
Could somebody recommend me a shop/online store that has recessed solar lights for decking? I can't seem to find many nice ones and they all don't seem to…

You obtain the free fence after handover when your house is complete, you have to lodge a form with them after you get the keys.
The $3k doesn't arrive until you…

Evap cooler with bamboo flooring

Cheers, thanks for the info!

Evap cooler with bamboo flooring

Hmm..I've noticed that people say evap coolers don't work well when the humidity is above 50% anyway.
I might install the ducted evap cooler throughout the house, and then install…

Bamboo Flooring with Evaporative cooler

Hi guys,
but no one replied so I'm posting it here! :(
Just wondering whether anyone who has bamboo flooring within their homes have had evaporative coolers…

Evap cooler with bamboo flooring

Just did a lot of googling around and found that relative humidity levels must remain between 30-70% in order to maintain the bamboo flooring properly.
How often will an evaporative…

I'm getting really awesome speeds. By running a couple of speeds test online I get roughly 20Mbps.
On the router however, it's saying that my downstream is close to 25Mbps.…

Just signed up with BigPond.
BigPond seems to be the only provider capable of providing ADSL2 in the area. All other companies that I could find (TPG, Optus, Internode, iPrimus)…

I did the trenching myself, which was a really big mistake.
Called up the contractor about doing the trench myself, he said it was all fine and told me how…

Yeap you're right. A new connection with Telstra is $299, but you have to pay that regardless to get connected. In regards to the trench however, that can be done…

Did anyone do the trenching for the telephone lines themselves?
I called up Telstra two weeks ago and asked them, they said I had to call some contractors to get…

Just called up Optus and they said the area isn't serviceable for cable internet :(
I'm guessing everyone is running ADSL/ADSL2+ then?

Thanks! Will have to pop by tomorrow to get my fence done asap. Do we have any say in the type of fence being put up, colour, height etc. ?

Not too keen on Telstra, they're probably the most expensive company to go with.
If you take a look at http://www.adsl2exchanges.com.au and put in your address,…

Really?! Can someone confirm this?
Is it also still a guideline that the fences must be timber? No colourbond?

Woo, thanks for that!
I'm at 15 Murphy Street, Lot 169, how about you guys?
Are you on the border of Carlingford? If not, I think that you deal with it…

I can't find any info on 'tarrawinge', assuming that's the colour you recommended. Could you paste me a link or something?
