WEEK FIVE | HOUSE 4

Can you believe we are in the FINAL WEEK of this reno!? I can’t. In fact if you asked me if it were possible, I’d say “no way, Rosé”. But Erin assures me we are on track to finish by Friday. So with the pressure on I was quite reluctant to take a day out to write this blog (yes it takes me that long). Surely this is how the Masterchef contestants feel when there’s 3 mins left on the clock, they’ve just burnt their sauce (and fingers) and suddenly Matt Preston appears for a quick interview.

WEEK ONE | HOUSE 4

I remember. It was 12yrs ago and myself, Bonnie and Erin were at a nightclub (god knows where) and we were badgering the DJ (poor guy) to play “Let’s Get It Started” for us.  And like that night, on Monday morning of this week I made the same song request on my iPad. Why? Because after a loooong wait, we were finally starting our House 4 reno!!  It’s official - the party has started at House 4 and us Birds are now nesting in Northmead for the next 6 weeks.
