    Concrete pour day is very exciting on any build!

    Each to their own, but very rare for people to double paling both sides of a fence. We have a dog, palings one side only.

    Yep, ours are all painted ironstone (regardless of which side the palings are on which is a mix) and then have lily pily's hedged which pretty much completely covers one fence line and then and then jasmin on reinforcement wire on another.

    Building a Home

    I wouldn't add double palings to the back of the exiting fences. I'd just spray them with a darkish colour and landscape in front of. A good saving for you not to have to pay for the fencing.

    Building a Home

    A bit confused by this one John? The solar gas boosted should be using a heap less gas than just an instant system. As it is essentially water that is already warmed up with the gas instant system only needing to top the heat up. It shouldn't be constantly circulating? I have an evacuated tube...

    Can do both. Can unlock it on the app or can give them a code with a time expiry.

    Qantas joins Virgin in criticism of Rex using government aid to fuel growth

    I don't applaud them for it (no vested financial interest in any of the airlines!), and actually as a taxpayer I generally don't applaud it at all from any of the airlines! But, I acknowledge they have played the game well!

    Qantas joins Virgin in criticism of Rex using government aid to fuel growth

    I don’t agree with lobbying and the result being different for different carriers, but blame the government not the airlines! As per any private business it is their prerogative to maximise return. It is just smart business if the government gets seduced in to paying out when they cry poor. It...

    Best Airbus A380 memories (so far)

    One and only F experience was TG A380 BKK-CDG and FRA-BKK, and what made it even better was that it was all done for 'free' for the points price of J on one of the old US miles runs. Also doing SQ A380 J to Europe and back with a 4 month old, the sheer space for the 3 of us just made the trip...

    Good stuff! Have you set the height of your GPO's, CAT6 and Antennae for the TV locations?

    Qantas to outsource ground handling across Australia

    I actually don’t understand how they could realise an annual $100m saving to get the same service they need? The only way that is possible is if it was so poorly managed that a Contractor will do a more efficient job. Just doesn’t make sense. They may realise a saving to this level this FY, but...

    Virgin Australia to be sold to Bain Capital

    They aren’t really talking about the ‘now’ though. It’s what they will do once they have control. Have no doubt that Bain already has its exit strategy clearly planned. They will try and list it again in 3-5 years time or flog it off to another airline.

    Ask The Pilot

    Very sad. Wonder what the monthly cost is having them sitting there and turning over ever now and again.

    Ask The Pilot

    Interesting! What was the fine to the company if you had landed? As obviously some significant costs returning to origin and putting everyone in hotels. I have only had the one flight that went Origin to Destination and all the way back to origin. Was ADL-OLP flew all the way there for there to...

    Qantas A380 refurbishment news and updates

    Surely the loss of first class from Aus to the US will be a loss of significant revenue? Might have even thought the initial phase coming out of COVID more people may be interested in plumping for the space of first.

    We have this in the bathroom too. Powerpoints inside the drawers and also the mirrored cabinet. Were always on our plans and no issues with compliance. Good for hair dryers, electric toothbrushes, shavers etc. and keeps the bench clear. Harder one was the pendant over the bath as that can only...

    Building a Home

    Good attitude! In all seriousness it doesn't matter how big your budget is $200k, $500k, or even $5m, there are always compromises on cost and it never seems to be enough to get everything you 'want'. Like I said earlier a lot of things won't actually improve your lifestyle nor the value of your...

    100% agree! We used the same benchtop stone on kitchen, pantry and laundry splashbacks. No grout to clean!

    Solid doors internally is the way to go as well for noise transmission. Hate hollow core doors with a passion! Being MDF these days the solid internals aren't that expensive anyway. 1594879783 Runs on battery. Haven't had to change it yet...! They have the ability to plug in a 9V battery...
