And now for the plumbing

The plumbers were at the house early this morning & were still working hard late this afternoon when we called in.

It was a beautiful, sunny Melbourne day & with all the doors wide open & music playing loudly it was really lovely to be inside our house which is feeling more and more like a home.

Today the sinks & taps were all installed in the laundry, bathrooms & kitchen. The showers, bath and toilets were also installed though the shower screens are still to be done.

To finish off all the outside downpipe connections there was a lot of digging done today - the outside was already a mess but now its just awful. I have to keep gumboots in the car to avoid trapsing clay everywhere!

Anyway all is going really well & we are looking forward to seeing the last few jobs finished off shortly.

Shiny, new toilet


Ensuite (there are 2 sinks, one is hidden behind the door)

Kitchen sink with tap (try to avoid looking at the mess in the living room, just focus on that shiny sink!)

And the bathroom, I was a bit surprised at the length of the tap! The vanity still has the protective board sitting on the top which is hiding the sink.

Isn't it funny how excited we get about a toilet or sink? We are not far behind - I think our plumber is on site tomorrow. Looking good!
