Hank, waiting patiently

Well we have been told it will take another 3 weeks before we present Hank to council. Not sure why but its been over a month since we signed off on the final design and landscape.

On another note, we requested pricing on having shower recesses in the two showers on the second floor as well as getting silver gloss window frames ... prices came back as the silver gloss colour being free but the two recesses came in around $900! kind of evened itself out but we really want them as they are neater and look cool... so we're thinking of cutting down on fancy tiling for the bathroom... we still havent decided on tiling for bathroom in terms of feature tiles or mosaic on the tubs but i think we can get away without too much cost as these tiles and the laying of the fancy tiles cost extra.

Hopefully with some nice accessories the bathrooms can look modern still, will have to go to display homes and see what kind of layout and design looks ok but still reasonably priced.

oh and Hank's neighbour is apparently for sale too which hopefully might mean they won't complain too much about Hank when they get notified by council. we really need to look at the fencing on that side as it is wooden and slanting towards us already but i haven't really committed myself to changing it yet... would want the neighbours to share in the cost.

First day of spring!
