Heya folks.... Really annoyed I can't be there this weekend so I'll have to ask doug3030 to add a few off colour comments (on-top of his own) and put up with the disapproving glares I would usually cop :)
I'm hard at work renovating our little unit whilst our we don't have tenants in there....
My wife is hoping it's going to be 'the block' style however I see it turning into 'my house rules'
Few progress shots of wall removal, still a kitchen, bathroom and new floors to go... Going to be a busy few weeks...
Simone did mention maybe next year we will bring the clan down so I'll hold her to that one.
Thanks all for the updates and pictures...looking like a great time!
Hopefully I'll catch up with you all sooner, but if not see you in dooen 2019!!!

Was meant to be working today and did actually start to remove a gate post.
But was looking for any excuse to not work today.
So after two hours work, I chucked the bucket I quit work.
And we left the big smoke earlier than expected.
Cheers Matt
I'll look out for you.
Oh found you

Yesterdy was a great day. I had the immense pleasure of working on the mallet kits I put togehter with three very inspiring young homeschooled people. Alix, Evanna and Ben (Iprobably misspelt at least two of the names) were a pleasure to work with and they all made great work of their mallets.
All the homeschoolers appeared to have a great day with the other forum members as well making pencil cases, dolls furniture and various turned items. Ihave taken some pictures but I won't post them til I get home to the real computer.
Cheers
Doug
