Still waiting on the money!

Our mortgage broker has pulled a rabbit out of the hat and has found someone who is prepared to look at our application! It all depends on the valuation now. Because the house is partially renovated, and they only value on the condition it is in right now, we could have problems. Floors up and walls down don't help but we are trying to remain optimistic. We should know by Tuesday so wish us luck...

Yesterday I won 60 pieces of sandstone on ebay for $34.00. Today, Amanda and Hewitt drove all the way to Penrith to pick them up only to discover that 3/4's of it was pieces the size of you hand. Half a days work for half a retaining wall - not happy. But...

We have just been told from our neighbour that they are selling beautiful, chunky blocks of sandstone for a $30.00/tonne at St Ives tip. I think we'll be taking a trip there next week.
