About Me

Lots of people are aware of the funny idiosyncrasies of the Australian language...... a common tip for visitors keen to sound like a local, add an “o” to the end of each word, a ‘servo’ is a service station, rego is the car registration, the bottle-o is the bottle shop and reno is renovation. We are renovating our home, in other words, “we’re doing some reno’s”! This is our attempt at a blog, a way to describe the journey of the reno’s, an extended tale that's taken us from our little flat near a beach in Sydney, to our little miners cottage in Melbourne, come to think of it... we might call it the “reno blogo”.

The Wonder Wall

We got an engineer in to assess the building - anything is possible “Yes we can take the wall out – yes it is load bearing” We just have to put this massive beam in to hold the building up. The engineer drew up some plans for us, which most builders can follow, so we recruited this guy we met at a wedding - Matt from Aquitane Constructions to come over – check it out and then chop it out... Check out the video on the right - it's Matt an Stu and their wonderwall..

Cool, not just a window removed anymore - lets knock the whole thing over. Wicked. When's the demo party?
