I really have no idea when will AVJ start the slab works. CSO said that the final drawings should be out this week. Anyway, I sent her an email enquiring as to what will happen next and when. Hope I'll get the reply tomorrow so that I'll have something to write on this blog which has been so quiet for the past two days. If you would like to have a virtual tour and picture gallery of Piazza 250, please follow the link below...

18 September 2009 Late Afternoon

We went back to the site to see how it looks like after the cut and fill job. Very impressive. I wonder what would be the next move of AVJ. Can't wait to see the slab sitting on that level ground. Wish me luck again.

18 September 2009 - Noon time

I went to the site during lunch break to check if indeed there was an excavation happening. Surprise...looks like the operator of the equipment was very busy with the cut and fill activity. I was so happy the rain did not come to hamper the operation.

17 September 2009

Visited the site today to check if there is any indication that the excavation works will push through tomorrow (Friday). It is so quiet...don't know if the big thing will happen tomorrow as promised by the CSO. Anyway, this is how the site looks like. AV Jennings signage has been there since early July 2009. According to the weather forecast, Port Macquarie will experience scattered showers early or late during the day. I hope the showers won't come but rather the equipment and the excavation team to kick start the construction process. Hi everyone...wish me luck.

This is the site.

This is our site - Lot 408 Rivergum Drive, Port Macquarie, NSW.

Created this blog today.

Hi everyone, I created this blog today with the intention of keeping you informed of the progress of our first home construction here in Australia. We signed up with AV Jennings to construct our home sometime in May 2009. After meeting all the preliminary requirements (deposit,lots of paperworks, soil test, etc.), our client service representative told us that they will move in and start the site preparation by the middle of October 2009. That's 5 and 1/2 months from signing of the contract. What a wait. Anyway, Kim (the client service representative) sent me a email informing me that they will excavate the site on Friday, 18 September 2009, weather permitting. Fingers cross....hope this will happen.
