There are signs of digging around the line, and the electric meter box (is this the right name?) is now connected with an orange cable from below.
This is another unexpected "progress" which we were expecting the electrician to contact us in advance - as he promised. The reason? Our telephone guy said if he can lay the underground Telstra telephone cable at the same time while the electricians are digging his cable, it would save us some money and effort. We spoke to the electrician and he agreed, but look at what happened... We now need to get the telephone guy back again to dig at the same spot for the telephone cable..#$@%$!@#...
Also noticed holes for the power points and light switches were cut, probably also by the electrician. And the architrave around the doors also completed.
Windows trim/architrave also done. Hope the guy who did all these work reads the diagrams carefully, as we paid extra to get the skirting boards "tacked" only! Hang on, this is the supervisor's job, why should I be worrying about this??!!
The other thing is, if you compare with photos from previous post, you will notice all the fences on the roof have been removed.
Don't know why, for some reason whenever I was there I can always pick up problems. May be it's just that I am too fussy... And today, I got 2 of them. First is the external lights, we have 3 external lights at the front. This one is at the right hand side, at the corner outside the bay windows.
The other 2 lights are located at both sides of the garage doors as shown below. Have a look at the 2 photos and see if you can pick up any problem, I will give you 30 seconds...
The answer is the position. By counting the number of bricks above the wire, you will see that in the first photo, the wire is about 4.5 bricks from the eaves. But the other 2 are about 7.5 bricks from the eaves!! Unfortunately as the gyprocks are on, the first one can't be moved any more, looks like the only option is to move the other 2 higher....
The other issue is inside the laundry. We noticed there were some damages on the cornice/wall/ceiling above the laundry door. I think it's because the cornice guy accidentally (or carelessly?) blocked this alarm sensor cable. So when the alarm guy was back to check the cables (after cornice/gyprock work), he has to drill holes here and there to locate the wire.... Hopefully it's not too difficult to fix the cornice/wall/ceiling...
Previous test with following bookmark & subscribe buttons in early January doesn't work quite well, this is 2nd try...
