man - it shows how much i blog:
summary of reno:
may - remove everything carpet, wall board, foam ceiling (the last two items combined gave the house the feeling of the house from the castle... yuck!), yucky built in wardrobes, small cupbards (they even have a cupboard built from asbestos!). Also, removing foam ceiling is back breaking work, i have to lift a heavy scraper (5kg+) to do the ceiling. eventually i gave up a little and got someone else to finish scraping the ceiling.
we also removed kitchen & bathroom. On council clean up day, our pile of rubbish was so high that it became a spectacle for all those who drove past on galston road (i distinctly remember one family who all turned to look at our rubbish).
june: lots of shopping - looking for kitchen, bathroom, tiles. then it was tradesmen madness:
1) gyprockers
2) electrician
3) tiler
4) floor board person
5) carpenter
july: as well as wedding prep, we needed to move in/add finishing touches/prepare accomdation (i.e. getting enough quilts/beds/heaters), organize itinerary for relos. it was probably the most stressful month in my life.
june:
