house reno week 16
Its week 16. The front entrance is back after the false start of last week when we had it pulled down and moved back by 30cm. Steven (the builder - Construction Projects) is still doing a great job and is 'a good boy' as Tony never fails to tell us.
This week we also ordered all of the equipment for the kitchen, bathrooms and laundry and ordered all of the white tiles for the whole of the house. Yea, no carpets at all and the same tile inside and outside and up a couple of the external walls too.

have you ever wondered
Have you ever wondered what $3M worth of sand might just look like.
Well it looks like this!
The new beach at Port Melbourne. Most of it is laid out already, but there is still a mountain of it to spread. How good would it be to turn that mound into a huge sand castle over night! Anyone want to help me?

Dew Drops
Does anyone know where we can get Dew Drops cordial - its a posh but really yummy melon and bitters cordial that we got in Queensland, but they don't have it in Port Melbourne Coles. Does anywhere else in Melbourne have it....?

Huff and Puff and blow your house down
Very exciting (well for us anyway), the brickwork started going up on the house this week. But then the next day it all came down again. No, it wasn't Trudi mixing up the porridge and the mortar (that dentist bill was huge), but the wall was built in the wrong place, out by 30cm

From small Akons, large oakleighs grow
I don't go back to work until next week, so when the chance to act like a 14-year-old-schoolgirl came along I had to take it..... Chart-topping Akon (Mr Lonely) was appearing at HMV at the Jam Factory. School uniforms were ditched for Dada and Fubu, and I was surprised by there being more guys than chickybabes. In fact when Akon appeared on the stage he asked 'where are all my ladies?'
Yes there was a stage, slightly bigger than the one at DTs, but not quite as big as the one in Kylie's fever tour. And he sang 3 songs. Well, 3.5 cos he came on stage singing a bit of Snoop Dogg's Drop it like its hot.

Did you miss us?
We're back from our hols in Porpoise Spit, had some great Queensland sunshine and we could almost hear the cackling of The Townsville Witches.
Dino got better. Joe went blond. Trudi gatecrashed (she was hiding in VirginBlue's capacious overhead-locker claiming she had the 'virgin blues')
Hi to Alex, Rowie, MP, MTNN, Tex, all at the

Where are Dino and Joe take 2.
If you are reading this, you are either always on blogger or you are trying to listen to the show and realise that we are not in the studio tonight.
As you know, we are off on holiday tomorrow but unfortunately it looks like Dino has caught a virus from a kind (or inconsiderate) work mate (yea, you know who you are!).
Anyway, I've made the decision that Dino is not well enough to do the show tonight, so sorry folks.
Catch you again when we get back and hope our replacement, Carousel, offers a good mix.
