Well as you have by now guessed, we have once again moved the "move-in"date. Originally we were due in by 30 September (2006) and were assured that this was possibly right until the eleventh hour. We then set a new date as 13 October which has come and gone. The next date was to be the 19 October which will also come and go. We have set another date which we will now keep private in the hopes it doesn't get jinxed. So once we are in and life returns to some for of normality I will update you again.
As you can see, we have a garden and swimming pool. I must admit we were very excited on Friday when the grass was done as it transformed the place from a building site to a home. We have the sprinkler system up and running and hope to see the grass taking soon. As far as the interior goes, the kitchen still has 1 or 2 outstanding issues, the carpenter is just about done with the skirting and architrave. We need to seal the screed floors and the painters have a rather large snag list to work through.
In the meantime we have 7.5 weeks till our wedding. In these 7 weeks we need to
1. pack-up, move-in and unpack.
2. airdash to London for Brian & Lisa's wedding
3. airdash to Natal for Rory & Kelly's wedding
4. roaddash to Ficksburg for our wedding stuff
5. work/live/stay away from TARA/sort the wedding
so, if you can, please spare us a thought and send some positive energy to 42 Sixth Ave, Parktown North

PS I do not see rain gutters? Could cause grief for the foundations.

Looks great. Move now... Why wait?
well I try to remain the eternal optimist.... but with the reliability of SA Builders I seem to only set myself up for disaster.
As for moving in now rather than later, its merely from a security perspective that we have delayed. In light of the events of March 1994 that are ever present in our memories, we decided to wait a week rather than risk our security.
ALL GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow really looks great. wait to move till everything is done, better for your sanity.
