A Septic Tank!

We had a drive down to the house this evening after work to see if anything had happened over the last week.

Last weeks site update was "...the frame carpenters are likely to start on site in about a week or so as they needs to finish of the current site they is working on first." so we didn't expect to see any dramatic changes.

We were really excited however to see that the 'underground services' have been put in, including our septic tank. The concrete top of the tank is in the front garden and bang in line with our front door... Another slight moment of panic but nothing too worrying. The mound of earth at the front of the house has now been cleared so it looks great.

There are only a few empty blocks of land left now. It's really exciting there at the moment with everyone at very similar stages of their build.

Will pop down again at the weekend to get some latest photos! I started a photography course this week so watch the photos improve over the next 9 weeks!

By the way, we were gutted this week to learn that the $7000 first home owners grant that we received has been increased to $21000 for the next year as part of a plan by the Government to boost the economy as part of their 'Economic Security Strategy'! Just missed out on that one!
