After Andrew picked up the girls we headed our to visit the soon-to-be-ours new house. On the way we saw the signs to the Kalorama – Mount Dandenong CFA<\/a> fund raising sale and decided to go there first. Kirsten bought a bunch of things while I bough a sausage at the sausage sizzle<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After that we headed off to the new house. Now I have to say, visiting ones new-house-to-be is a surreal experience. There were quite a number of cars parked out the front and we payed $5 each for the entry fee. All the proceeds are donated to OXFAM<\/a> and there were several local members present.<\/p>\n

We wandered a bit around the Australian Native garden<\/a> that Shirley Carn\u00a0had created. It was good just to be able to have a relaxed stroll and just enjoy it. There really is something different to see each time you stop and look.<\/p>\n

After talking to Shirley and meeting some of her friends we went in as I wanted to remeasure the fridge hole. Unfortunately Richard’s measurement of 800 mm was correct. I don’t know how I managed to measure 950 mm. We now have the choice of putting in a normal fridge or modifying the kitchen to put in the 900 mm wide double door fridge I had chosen.<\/p>\n

After this, we spent some time exploring ideas as to where to put the dogs and the chickens. I think we are pretty much settled on the dog location though we are still considering two spots, but the chickens are not sorted.<\/p>\n

We finished the day with the most surreal activity of it all: tea and cake on the back deck of the house<\/a>.<\/p>\n
