No Slab, not even a 6-Pack

I decided to drive up to my block today and see if my slab has been poured. Well that's a big fat NO!!

Open up and say Ah!! Someone left my box open... I didn't bother closing it, don't really see the point. lol

Pics of Site Scrape

My whole block of land

The builder sent me some invoices today... I find it odd that there is no item listed on there, so I don't really know what they are charging me for. I paid the initial 5% deposit and as far as I am aware the next payment is suppose to be around $30k. This invoice is only for several grand. Will give them a call tomorrow.

Surprise, Surprise!

Seeing as I managed to get my car fixed, I decided to go and check out my block.

To my surprise I found that they had done a site scrape. No one told me that they had started!
My back yard appears to be tiny which is disappointing as I wanted my son to be able to run around and amuse himself. It's hard to believe that looking at the site scrape, that someone can live in what appears to be a tiny house. Hopefully, I am disillusioned and it is infact a decent sized house. I did take pics but I can't be bothered uploading them. I will do it .... eventually.

Oh and the other thing, my car is stuffed again lol. This time it's the brake switch, so no one knows I'm braking as the lights don't come on!! Not a major problem, I have purchased a new switch, just need to work out how to change the stupid thing.

At last!!

Settlement finally occured at 2.30pm on 1st December 2009. Around 3pm my solicitor's secretary rang me to tell me of the news! Had to also pay interest on my mortage, fortunately it was only based on one day so just under $22 :)

My builder has ordered the supplies but I don't think I will see any action this month. They can promise me all they want, but I am a realist.

Unfortunately, I cannot venture up to my land until I work out what is wrong with my car. For some reason it seems to hate Saturday evenings and not want to start. Tomorrow I am having the distributor replaced, lets hope that this is the solution to the problem.
For the smarty pants out there, no I cannot just go on a Sunday and not expect my car to play up, I wish it were that simple though!!!
