Paint and Powerpoints!

Well the house is coming together, hopefully in time to be handed over on Wednesday. The panel above the roller doors has been painted.


The front door has been painted and the mortice lock installed. Inside the painting of the walls, ceilings, trims and doors has been finished and the door handles are on. The powerpoints and light fittings are in.


The meter box has been painted, although it has a dusty handprint on it.


The eaves and downpipes have been painted. The security alarm and the hot water system installed.


And the rainwater tap sign has been put up.


I met the other neighbour today, and saw that the people in Number 15 have moved in. So it looks like I'm going to be the fourth household moved in.

PCI moved to Wednesday

Due to changes on Allworth people's schedules PCI has been pushed back a couple of days.

This apparently is a good thing because my Mum went to the site to meet with a concreting contractor for me to get a quote for the driveway and enertainment area and she says the eaves and downpipes still aren't painted. Looking through the windows she couldn't see taps or powerpoints, only doors handles.

The weather has improved today, but looks like late showers and this deterioration continues tomorrow to pick up on the weekend with mild days forecasted until Tuesday. So, maybe painting will be finished early next week. I know weather predictions aren't 100% but the mind wonders why on a weekly basis it isn't used to at least get a sense of the way things are going.

Thanks to everyone's kind thoughts as a response to my last post, still very excited though as PCI still comes 1 day earlier than originally anticipated way back sixteen-odd weeks ago.
