Day 156 - March 1st (Day 12)

We have managed to get the tv mounted on the wall... after some very hot work in the roof! Hopefully the concreter will be returning tomorrow, to supply us will a solution to add the "glossy" layer to the concrete.

They have come out now to fix the leaking pump on the rainwater tank. Turns out it was the pressure gauge, so they have taken it away and will be returning tomorrow with a new one.

Got out Mr. Antenna today after Jim's antenna's let us down by not turning up. They phoned me 15 minutes after the agreed time and told me he was t ill to make it. Normally, I'd just reschedule, but I'd phoned him twice that morning to organise a time, and there was no mention of im feeling unwell. I might just be a little mean ? but it's really annoying when you've been waiting 4 days for the guy to turn up and he misses the appointment. Anyway.... Mr. Antenna installed the unit today and it is working well.

We also went out to pick up a second rug for our daughters bedroom...we are going to need to protect the carpet from the 4 year old!

Most of the home is set up now. Just need to run the wiring for the TV. I can complete this now we have an Antenna. Need to pick up some ceiling speakers!

Also need to order the gates form the property shortly. They are installing the retaining wall on the other side of the house tomorrow. 'm just not certain as to how to mount the stratco fence to the side of this as the poles probably won't be long enough to make it into the ground on our side. Might need to have a look at this with the neighbour as I think the fence should be added to his side so it can sit in the soil and have support??

Need to start to mark the ground as the decking material is being delivered tomorrow.
