Hi RJ,
Thankyou! Yes, the idea was to give the kids essentially their own wing of the house. The other half has grand plans for lots of interstate guests…

Hi Dani,
We're very early through the process (just put down first deposit), but have done a heap of reading on this. Firstly, at least in QLD, the communication from…

We have just put down our deposit on an Oasis (QLD), and we're planning to get the grand alfresco done with timber decking.
Are we better off getting it concreted and…
